Variation on a Theme: email

And my imagination sees you crying, curled up in a ball so weak.  I want to go to you.  I want to tell you that you’re pathetic.  I want to look you in the eyes and tell you to stop crying before I give you something to cry about.  Just turn the crying off!  The grief must be held in at all times.  I don’t want to hear it.  I won’t listen to you anymore!

Because I understand.  Because I’ve felt what you are feeling.  Because I don’t ever want you to feel that way again—your diseased emotions.
