"Because you, and others like you, are the nerve endings of the world. You need to be the ones who say 'Ow!' when the world cuts itself, so that they don't do it again. Others are the skin on the bottom of the feet, some are hands but you and others like you, you are the heart and the never endings that must feel everything that can be felt. I'm so sorry."
"Don't be sorry. I just wanted to know."

I really like this. Tender...
But what about the boys who like to pretend they don't feel, but put you through everything so they can experience the world by proxy and they cling to you, like parasitic barnacles?
In the day, you hate them but on the cold nights, when there is no one else...
*cries*
Thank you.
