Pain
"Pain," I said to him. “Does not go out of the window or door easily."
He just looked at me and said nothing.
"It stays around for a long time. Bouncing back and forth on the four walls of the room…" I continued.
He cleared his throat, still not saying anything.
"It stays long after the tears are dried up and your emotions' parched..." my words just drifted off into nothingness.
Silence.
Until the ticking of the clock on the distant hall is the only sound echoing in the room.
"Pain is a strong emotion Cy," he said. "Sometimes you need to let it fully sink in, to be able to detach from it completely."
It was my turn to look at him and said nothing.
"But letting it fully sink in is completely different from letting it linger," he said.
