The Pain

Ever felt raging human emotions burning you from inside? if yes, then this is for you

 the pain of lying

the pain of crying

the pain of loving…

i know it all…

 

the fire burns me alive

churns up my filthy insides

down and down it pulls me to the ground

trying to purge me from inside

 

it pains you know…

hurts when you receive a blow

blow that comes from the trusted

the cared and the loved

they played with you

that’s what you were

the toy… the pawn…

 

it pains when you strive

to know what made you care

what made you love the one you now hate?

it may be a prank

it may be true

but why do you cry?

why do you pity?

 

it may have pained to lie

but the pain is nothing

compared to the pain of being caught

the pain of being stripped of all that you showed

all that you faked

lies open staring at your face

the pain of losing your name

in the quest for love and fame

 

the pain of being all alone

in a crowd of stones

it pains like the mighty fall

bitter and bitter

it burns..

it pains…

 

it pains cause you gave me the pain 

it pains because i tried to be nice

it pains because i hate to love

it pains because you made me so

 

so here i am

standing tall like the monster you turned me into

hatred and agony burning me alive

but nothing pains like the pain of treachery

pain of the unfaithful

pain of the traitor

the pain of being hated by the one you love

 

the winner takes it all

the loser stands small

and congratulations… you win…

i am nothing now

turned to dust… burned alive…

 

but you know what?

i forgive you

 

and nothing pains like forgiving a friend who betrayed you…

Author's Note

I didnot write this poem for people to review... how I sometimes wish I had not written this at all!

Reviews

[I gorge myself on u, I ..]

yes , yes and yes. it always seems like a...like a silly thing to do, to forgive. but actually it's the whole point of friendship and life in general. all the pain and all the fucked up feelings we have when someone leaves a hole where our heart should be...those feelings are way easier from that feeling when we truly forgive. it may seem stupid but it takes a strong person to say: 'its ok...i forgive u'...and it takes a really strong one to actually mean it. I don't know...it hurts u now...but u'll see it's a great act eventually.I know I did.

[Jared Hughes]

Why not? This was an excellent poem! You have accurately portrayed betrayal in it's most simplest terms.

Well done! Anything you write is from the heart and you should never be ashamed of that.
