What if we changed the conversation?
Not the words, just the order.
What if we gathered up all those curses and slurs that poured out our mouths, placed them upon a blank surface, and then rearranged them together?
Could we change that conversation?
Could we change it enough - enough so that we don't walk away hating each other?
Hating ourselves ...
How many different combinations could we make?
How many would it take?
Words like shame, disappointment, betrayed, coward, monster - in what order would they need to fall, to sting any less?
