"no" is a different kind of love,
it's not sweet like honey
it doesn't dissolve like sugar
there's no hiding its bitterness
it burns like rubbing alcohol
and goes down tough like Robitussin
but do not mistake its intention
it is there to heal and to cure,
to create new boundaries again and again
so that "yes" can spring forward and keep building the self that "no" has fiercely preserved.
