It Hurts Poem by Akshay Srinivasan

It Hurts

Rating: 5.0


It hurts not to talk
It kills to walk
Away from happiness
And your smile
Away from you
Leaving my heart
Just like the shattered few

It hurts that I cannot be
With you forever
It hurts that I have to smile
It hurts that I have to live
It hurts that I can only dream
Of times when I can be
The reason for your smile and joy

It hurts that I have to lay aside
This heart that beats for you
It hurts that I have to act
To hide the truth, the fact
The dreams and the endless love
my heart and my life
its pain and its eternal strife

Love can bring such happiness and joy, yet when having to leave it the pain can be excruciating. Our hearts broken like a vase, shards of glass cutting our minds and hearts. Emotions rising and falling, doubt and uncertainty filling us within, not knowing how to handle what we're going through. Great poem! Thank you for sharing. RoseAnn
