I have been trying to feel nothing about what happened.
I am afraid that if I begin to feel, I won't be able to bear it.
I am afraid that the emotion will be like a wave ******* me under.

It's not the first awful thing I have endured and pushed into the back of my brain.

That's how I've been coping, and if there's another, better way,
I do not know it.
