End the Hurting by D. M. Larson 30 second Monologue.
(A face appears in the darkness. The face is sad and looks in pain.)
ME:
when you're hurting you look for weakness.
You take that hurt and pass it on to me.
You're hurting... so you hurt You're damaged... so you damage.
You're feeling pain so you cause pain in me The light becomes brighter and the face transforms looking stronger and determined.
ME: (CONT.It has to stop.
