Words contain worlds; every grammar is both an aesthetics and a metaphysics. But above all, words have a hidden life, full of secrets and mysteries, waiting to be unveiled. If words are so important, which words should we choose for Care? How can we select the right ones, appropriate to the moment and the context – and, most importantly, the ones that should remain unspoken? What kind of relationship exists between words and silence, between words and gaze, between words and gesture, between words and breath? How can we shape and give meaning to the words we use in therapy, paying attention not only to their interpretation but also to their sound? In this contribution, starting from a reflection on the importance of exploring the different languages of childhood, in search of the right balance between “sound, meaning, and beauty,” the Author suggests an aesthetic vision of the care relationship, where the different narratives of suffering can be transformed from the language of prose into that of poetry. Several writing exercises are described, which can be used in different therapeutic settings.
Keywords: word, care, sound, meaning, beauty, poetry.
