I Remember That it Hurt
I remember that it hurt,
Seeing the one you love,
Love someone else.
I remember that it hurt,
Driving out into the middle of nowhere,
Just to scream at the top of your lungs.
I remember that it hurt,
Seeing the blood flow,
But not feeling a thing.
I remember that it hurt,
Submerging yourself under water,
Just to hear your heart pounding,
Because sometimes,
It was the only reminder
That you were still alive.
I remember that it hurt,
Feeling so alone
When you were surrounded by people.
I remember that it hurt,
Feeling like ending everything
Was the only way to escape the pain.
I remember that it hurt,
Getting high off of life,
And losing everything.
