Wash The Pain Away Poem by Matthew Petranovich

I jumped into the shower
Hoping the water
Would wash my pain
away.

Everything I've said,
everything I've done,
Just goes down
the drain

Everything I have ever loved,
Will it just fade away?
I hate this feeling
so
I lie to myself
every single
day

Saying it will be better
but it only gets worse.
Its hard I hate
the way it hurts.

But its time to let go
Time to go,
All these feelings just
trapped in a bubble.

It just popped
Now it gives
me pain in my eyes,
I try to cry
But I can't force
myself too.
I can't fool my feeling,
but they can fool you.

I'm the fool for
trying to wash them away.
These messed up ideas
On my muffed up brain

But oh well,
Sorrow only death can
heal
I'll try to throw it away like
a banana peel
but it don't rot away,
I think it's starting
to rot my brain
And maybe thats the
reason I'm so insane.
