Hurt

 

 

      My world crashing all around

 

    Rage has built its thundering sound

 

     The hurt I feel it kills me now

 

    It takes me whole and swallows me down

 

      Been hurt a thousand times

 

    My heart has survived a hundred crimes

 

     Feeling lost, don't wanna be found

 

To be wrecked again, to be looked at like a clown

 

       Tied up bound to this world

 

      Shangled up high and curled 

 

      Only ever wanting to be free

 

 But hurt and struggle has bound me to lock and key

 

       Down, down deep inside

 

      In my heart there it hides

 

        The wanting to love

 

        The wanting to see

 

  The wanting to be what I can never be

 

    In my mind I'm stronger than ever

 

  In my heart I know it wont last forever

 

    The little girl with a broken smile

 

   Her heart wonders for a million miles

 

  What's a life worth if it isn't spent living

 

   I don't know if I wanna be forgiving

 

             The way I am

 

             The way I act

 

   Is from a soul that's been cracked

 

     Piece by piece it's torn apart

 

 All that's left is a beating heart

This is an amazing poem for it being your first one. I found it hard to stop reading to be honest. And i rather enjoyed the use of 'shangled', i thought it was clever. It feels like something very relateable to most people, and that is hard to do sometimes with poetry. Thank you for sharing

Pretty melancholic, yet beautifull. Makes me remember the fight that the heart (and in consecuence mind) holds against the world

This is a fantastic poem, the fact that it's your first makes it even more fantastic. Your feelings come across very well in this piece and it's an exceptionally sad poem. There's a good rhythm to this that makes the poem seem almost lyrical. Great job on this!
