How gently does the hurt begin,
to touch another's silken skin
with washes of a loving dream
that ebbs as soft as
tidal streams,

to dissipate like diamond suns
our love is just a shallow one,
that swims within a salty sway
of all the things we didn't say.
stupid and melancholy

comments/favs etc are always lovely and special.

Indeed! A lot of time people think of the pain and hurting as something that's harsh and sharp and strong, but sometimes it has simple origins and simple, little, problems, and you've demonstrated that quite well.
