NaPoWriMo #8: Hurt vs. Harm

Hurt:
Sprained ankle
Rough night
Truth

Harm:
Wandering without shoes
Disconnect from family
Memories hidden in the dark
Absence of little ones

You did so much with a few words. Very potent.

I am thinking your harm is so much worse than your hurt here–a perfect explication of the difference. Few words sometimes make strong feelings clearer.

That last line leaves a whole in the chest. Those words make you want to run screaming, and then just fall to pieces, empty…
