The Pain Poem by Shelvakumari Thachayil

The Pain

Rating: 5.0


How do I get out of this?
I want to lose my memory so I no longer think of  you
You said you would never let go
That is what I don't understand.
So many promises you made,
And more of them broken.
Nobody knows it's painful.
They think that I am strong.
Nobody knows I miss you.
They think I am all set free,
Nobody knows I need you.
They think I can do it on my own,
Nobody knows it's empty,
The smile that I wear.
Nobody knows I am crying.
They won't even see my tears.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

A very powerful write. Love will alway find a way, we have a habit of trying to force it. We have to wait as there are so many pressures in life. Love will happen.
