Your Body Is Speaking
On the roof of your mouth, a wound has formed that refuses to heal. A point that burns, that throbs, that reminds you at every bite, every swallow, every word that something is there that cannot come to rest. Medically, a palate ulcer is a mucosal injury caused by friction, irritation, infection, inadequate nutrient supply, or immune reactions. Usually such things heal within one to two weeks. When it stays, when it returns, when it becomes chronic — then a different question arises: why does this spot, of all places, find no peace?
The palate is the roof of your mouth. It is what lies above you while you receive — while you eat, drink, speak, kiss. It is the silent witness of your communication with the world. And it is the boundary between inside and outside at a very sensitive spot: where words arise, where nourishment begins, where breath and voice meet.
