The easiest thing would be just to replace it. Get one in a smaller size and lighter color. Then I would not have to figure out what to do with the void that it left inside. I would not have to think about who I would have been if I had not had that. I would not have to feel the time with it was wasted and now running out. But that would only be right if I liked it. If I had not built a thousand coping mechanisms to endure it. If I did not have these wounds.
