You laughed.<\/p>\n
I wish you had cried.<\/p>\n
I wish you had mourned.<\/p>\n
I wish you had screamed.<\/p>\n
I wish you had yelled.<\/p>\n

The most profound wounded sound I have ever heard.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It shook me to my core.<\/p>\n
It brought me down to my knees.<\/p>\n
It seeped deep into my bones.<\/p>\n
It made you part of my heart, causing it to bleed.<\/p>\n

The deep solitude.<\/p>\n
The deep wounds.<\/p>\n
The deep shame.<\/p>\n
The deep despair.<\/p>\n
The depth of things left unsaid.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You unloaded all of them at my feet, with one laugh.<\/p>\n
You chained me to the stake and set me on fire.<\/p>\n
Yes, I am now daily consumed by fire.<\/p>\n
The never quenched fire of guilt, regret, helplessness, and self-loath.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You laughed and finally brought me grovelling to my knees before you.<\/p>\n
Oh! What to do now?<\/p>\n
