Nothing But Pain

This is a first piece of mine. A free verse poem, written mainly from a day to day basis of emotions.

Nothing But Pain

This was the time when pain kept me awake at night,

my thoughts consumed by sadness and regret.
I wanted to cry, but pain was strong enough to hold my tears,
and I was breathless,
out of words,
for all I thought about was pain
again and again.

Author's Note

Bear with me for I am only a newbie to poetry. Ever since a kid, I have always loved poems and it really piqued my interest. Now, a teenager, I am trying to write and aspire to be one of those notable poets.
