the sadness was not hidden.
she had infected with him and she saw it now. that she had failed her father who had stood there with her from the very first day he had become so. who had always been so strong for everybody.
she had placed a sadness within him.
now, she thought, she understood that day with reverie better somehow. how she stood on the other side of it now as she looked at gunnar. nothing more than a young girl. small and terrified.
horrified of herself.
she felt she must say this first while she still had the vision and the strength to look in his face while she spoke.

i held an atlas in my lap
ran my fingers across the whole world
and whispered
where does it hurt?
