Michelle Nørgaard

"When you were little, 

if you fell, 

they would ask you where it hurt, 

and you would point to 

your knees, your arm or your elbow,

and they would make it better.

But you noticed

as you got older

if you fall

they do not ask you where it hurts.

You sit silently in your room,

waiting for someone to ask you

where it hurts,

pointing to your head and your heart.

Because that is where the pain

hurts the most

but nobody makes it better."
