wounds forgotten

i was on my way home when i saw this kid with a scab on his knee.

then it came to me:

i already forgot how painful it was to be wounded.

how hard i cry when i hurt myself;

how painful it is to treat the wound;

how itchy the wound would be when it is healing;

how awkward the scab would look--

how rough it would feel;

how pink the flesh is when the scab is gone;

how long before i forget that i even got one.
