Frank.

you're gunna be freekin fine. the bruises heal.

man, once the cloud of depression lifts, you're gunna be a rock star.

I still get pangs of pain now and then, but you know what, I had DAGGERS of pain going through this crap.

now...

I see the x daily, say how do you do, and go about my way.

the pain I used to feel is now pity. because she is who she is.

I like her, but I don't trust her. but with things the way they are, I don't have to trust her, or like her, I just am who I am with her. she can't hurt me now...
