THE WOUNDED CHILD I

THE WOUNDED CHILD I

THIS IS THE FIRST CONTACT WITH PAIN.

NOT UNDERSTOOD, NOT PROCESSED, JUST FELT. THE EYES REMAIN OPEN, CLEAR, UNPROTECTED, AS IF THE WORLD HAS NOT YET BEEN REDEFINED BY WHAT JUST HAPPENED. THE MARK IS THERE, SUBTLE, BUT PERMANENT.

THIS IS THE MOMENT INNOCENCE REALIZES IT IS NOT SAFE. AND STILL IT DOES NOT CLOSE. THIS IS NOT WEAKNESS. THIS IS THE LAST MOMENT BEFORE DEFENSE IS BUILT.
