“I hold trauma in the palm of my hand to feel her weight. I let her rest on my surface as if to say don't worry, I didn't forget what happened but you cannot sink into my bones. You will be a part of me without becoming me. And I am not kind because I've seen unkind things. I am not durable because of all that I have endured. It did not have to happen, but it did happen. So now we live with it. I do not think I had to know pain to be this gentle, but I don't know if I'd be this soft if the world hadn't show me its teeth.”
