Ode To Pain

Rating: 4.9


I have lost thousand friends.
I have lost my decent time.
I have lost the power to write poem.
Even forgot to write rhyme!

Can’t remember when you hold me tight
Can’t remember when you were near.
Happiness you’re just an illusion
You’re just a myth
You’re just a liar!
I don’t need you
Cause can’t grab you long!
Happiness!
You never want to stay!
Happiness why have to always go away?

Pain!
You’re like my shadow
The greatest line of my unwritten poem!
You touch my heart so gently
Painted all black so saintly
Pain you never left me
You never made me feel lonely
I saw women to go by
To torn apart my lonely world
Whom could I trust than you?
Who could always be in my luck?
You let me breath
You helped me to know who I am!
You helped me to stand up
You made me a man.
You forge me into a warrior
Preach me to forget fear
You make me go!

Pain!
You make me thirsty
Make me hungry
To learn more!
Pain your silent footprint
Makes my path!
Pain I have ruined all
I just stuck up
In this grave yard.
I can’t reach the peak
Never want to roar
I have seen the happy life!
Ain’t need any more!
I had the love once!
Once I had the spring
I have seen beauty of life
What new the time could bring!
Refection of my face;
Now curved by your grace
Nothing I have to chase!

Happiness!
I have seen your
Ugly face
Go away
Go away
I don’t need u
I was a hero in her fairy tell
Now I want see whom I in real?
How could you go?
When things were perfect.

Pain!
Now I now
It’s only you in my fate!

Happiness!
I don’t want give my soul
To the devil beneath you
Your old tricks won’t work
Ain’t even new!
I know beneath your ugly like me!
Why I have to wait for you?
Why I would build a castle in air?
Happiness!
You came
You leave
You disappear!
My dark life
My lonely nights
Don’t need your touch!



Pain!
Please come in my life!
Make me strong!
Make me tough!

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Dear fellow poet Mehedi Faysal, I like the scenario of tte poem. The two opposite, happiness and pain and your bitter choice (better the pain) . There are strong verses like 'Pain, You helped me to know who I am! ' The poem could be stronger if some repetitions/similarities had been omitted. So, I give a 9.Go ahead Mehedi.

your poem was very interesting, however, I don't think we should turn our back on happiness pain can make us stronger, but it can also destroy us... happiness can help heal us

You've tried to look at pain with many angles. You understand there is reason for pain..whether it comes from relationships, physical need or emotional and mental depravation.

You have really plundered your subconscious for this. These kinds of poems can be much more powerful than narrative poems. Just like it was mentioned before me, a poem doesn't have to rhyme. It just has to well, make since to yourself at least. With its emotion powerful 'poetic essence', I give it a ten. That's right. Good luck!

Basically I don't want to say anything about Lyrics as I read your title, but I like to read it again as I open it in my eyes and understand it's not a Lyrics, and thanks for Cody Byrne saying a poem doesn't nned rhymes, so I keep on reading and fully understand so well words poured from your heart..very good with imagination not bad at all in my eyes..I like to offer 10.
