Is there harm done if we hide our pain. Does it later come to hurt us? Are we creating little people inside us that are hurt and lonely? Especially with the huge pains?

Pain!
Hide it!
Push it down!
Push it away where we don’t feel it!
That’s it, soon we can live and not feel it.
We can go on.

But.

Is there a part of me
That still feels the pain.
That is still feeling that sharp pain.
Deep inside me hidden.
Inside lonely.
Hurting.
In pain.
Pain!

    An important subject. I think it is dangerous to push pain inside. Any deep wound must be healed from the inside out otherwise infection gets trapped inside and causes a lot of harm, the same is true for emotional pain.

    The worst times are when a person can’t fight the source of pain and feels powerless.
