The
body
aches,
the
ones
so
deep
that
there
are
no
knots
to
be
worked
out
,
down
to
the
tiny
cuts
on
my
fingers
and
forearms...surely
they
are
battle
scars
.
My
struggle
,
my
battle
.
To
come
home
to
him
,
I
know
that
is
my
reward
.
Have
him
wrap
his
arms
about
me
and
tell
me
that
it
will
be
okay
.
It
will
work
itself
out
.
This
spirit
crushing
job
,
these
back
-stabbing team mates,
this
enduring
job
hardening -
he
says
it
will
be
all
right
.
I
so
want
to
believe
him
but
,
I
fear
,
he
says
the
words
and
doesn't
believe
them
himself
.
How
I
love
him
...how
I
will
fool
even
myself
that
the
pain
is
not
real
.

raze
it
never
ceases
to
surprise
me
how
soon
they
start
stitching themselves
into
scabs
.
the
body
is
resilient.
