what it means

I try to avoid the pain
I try not to look inside
I try to point fingers
close my palm shut

I try to avoid the pain
I try not to look,
anywhere,
I see a silhouette

I cry out,
you correct your step
as if in a dream
I see you cross  the river
unharmed,

I look inside
I look at the pain
I see you unharmed
inside
I look at anger
I see you unharmed
I look at grief
I see you unharmed

do you know
what it means
do I know
what it means

I dance without fear
