Once bitten

I realised today that I don't think about him so much anymore.

But it isn't that I miss him any less.

It's that it hurts more than ever -- things like the fact this was the first birthday in five years when I haven't heard from him, really hurt. And so I've kind of trained myself to avoid the pain.

If I make myself not think about him, he can't hurt me. Can he?
