Raw

My entire being feels RAW, the kind of raw one felt as a child when experiencing a bike crash. Suddenly the bike crashes and slides on a concrete sidewalk or street. It is over in an instant and the pain is immediate---the rawness of the scrape on the leg--open, bleeding, burning, as if it will never stop but knowing it will. Even the knowing does not stop the immediate pain .

Oh CeCe, you've stopped me dead in my tracks. Honey, I don't know what your bike crash is but you have all of my heart wishing it was there to help pick you up. Close your eyes for a moment and accept my hug. Throughout the day I'll be holding your hand. I really wish I could do more than just give you these well wishes. You're a good person stuck in some bad circumstances and you deserve and need better. If wishes were rainbows...
