Pain Poem by Brandi Sue

Pain



Throbbing, aching, stinging, bolts of electrifying pain... I know not of why or how nor when it will go away...
Psychological, emotional, spiritual, and physical are all in what pain resides and will continue to be. Anger tries to hide it, but it has yet to succeed.
Depression, suffering, and grief are only factors and signs... When we go throough it, we tend to complain and ask questions of 'why? '
We beg, plead for relief, take drugs or try to drink it away. We cut ourselves or try to find other types of pain. We give and cause pain to others at times.
Some succeed and some fail, but those who cant handle it, understand it, or try... They take the cowardly way and attempt suicide.
Its disappointing, sad, and disgraceful too, ... I know, I once Was one of these people who didn't know what to do.
We feel no one understands what we go through... Or us. All people ever do anymore is just accuse, look, and judge.
It ain't right for others to decide, whats wrong or even whats right.
We give signs that we want and need help by hurting our bod's, all you people never listen or hear us, all you do is tell us to turn to your gods. Some of us make it through and live our lives, sadly others don't and end their suffering- by proceeding to die.
Throbbing, aching, stinging, bolts of electrifying pain... I know not of why or how nor when it will go away.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I wrote this poem because I have depression, I have thought about my depression and how many times I attempted suicide, even though its the cowardly way, I have gotten that low. My parents died at the ages of 45 for my mother and 49 for my father and my step dad is fighting cancer.... I'm struggling with keeping a roof over my head, and I think about all of that and incorporate it into my lyrics that I write or my poetry as well. Also my mother was a drunkard and abusive physically mentally and emotionally but I still loved her very much.
