Hi Bobbie,
I think that you have certainly indicated the extent of the pain, leaving me wondering about the prospensity and duration of this experience. This poem just highlights my own ignorence and inexperience. The very thought of pain felt by another person can be difficult to consider in itself, yet your last two lines are just say so much about you, so humbling. Thanks so much.
