quirky
very viseral and raw expression of sheer unadulterated pain. Isn't it in the crucible that we sprout wings?

skin thickeners
ought to come with the sex talk when we turn from child to woman. Something we can rub on, so mean remarks, especially from lovers or other important folk, will bounce off, run off our skin like water off a duck's back. Invisible scars are the hardest to remove. Good work!

Quirky,
Really great job with this one. I always believed that words could do 100 times more damage than any physical pain. Shadow
