Notes

I want to feel nothing.
For just a minute,
I want to feel nothing at all.

Please.

Pana

Can we feel another's pain.

Yes of course.

It is exactly the same as yours.

Pain unites us.

Bear

Run away.
Run far away and do not look back.

If you do the bear will catch you.

Bang

Stop.
Just stop.

NO

Why

Please do not feel sorry for me.
I am broken yes.

But no more than millions of others.

Life is unasked for,
And yet here we are.

Puzzle

My family was a jig saw puzzle,
And I was always the missing piece.

Always.

Tile

Tears are not sadness.
Empty eyes are.
