NAKAGO (THE STORY)

I could tell you a story
that would take you back
to my darkest days.

But if I told you that story,
it would break you.

You scoff in disbelief and say
that if it had not broken me,
that it would not break you.

I laugh, comedically,
because though I am the stronger of us two,
who says it had not broken me?

Comedically is used to mean tragically, here.
