In this brief poetic monologue, the speaker describes a woman whose only reason to stay still is the presence of pain; without it, she would flee from people. She claims she has never been afraid of herself, yet she pretends to be frightened so that those around her feel safe. Over multiple lifetimes she has been killed for who she was, but she was never afraid; instead, she protected others from their own fear. The narrative suggests she continues to bear this protective, self‑sacrificial identity, using pain as a means to keep herself grounded and to shield others.

Chapters

He said it— she would run away from people if it didn't hurt. The pain is what keeps her still. She's never been afraid of herself. She pretends to be so the people around her won't be. She built an entire identity around being the frightened one so others would feel safe. In lifetimes where people had killed her for what she was, she hadn't been afraid. She'd been protecting them from their own fear. She still was.
