Softer than silk Sharper than blades Noises whispering in the winds Words cut deepest when you cared

Beautifully done. The hurting heart sighs like silk in it.
Wonderful.
We tend to care when someone cares about us, making hearing the words meaningful. This is sort of liberating, as if the scars from such cuts might be healing, like the words are becoming like gnats, or phantom itches.
