It hurts


How do you get over the pain?

The sharp stabbing in the stomach?

The crying yourself to sleep?

It hurts too much

Unbearable… Is how it feels

Seeing your picture

Hearing your name

It all leads to you

My head says no

My heart says yes

But it hurts too much

I can’t take it anymore

Help me

Take the pain away

Far far away.
