Pain.
A simple word.
One syllable.
Four letters.
And yet,
It is one of the few words
That everyone understands.
A feeling of hurt,
Of despair.
The inability to smile,
To laugh.
The reason to not even
Give a f***.

You’ve caused me pain.
More pain then I thought possible.
I gave you everything.
My trust,
My heart,
My soul....
And all you did was
Throw it away.

You looked me in the eye,
Told me it was all alright,
But you were lying.
You held me in your arms,
Whispered sweet nothings in my ear,
But that’s all it was: nothing.

You never cared.
You never loved me.
All you ever did was hurt me.

All your words,
They were lies.
All your smiles,
They were cover ups for your secrets.
All your laughs,
They were laughs at how I didn’t know.
Didn’t know what you did,
Didn’t know who you were,
Didn’t know you were such an imposter.

Was I not good enough?
Was I not pretty enough?
Did I not fulfill your deepest desires?
Or were you just a jerk?

How could you have cheated?
How could you have lied?
How could you have hurt me like that?

You knew I cared,
You knew I loved you,
You knew I would cry,
But you still did it.

Pain.
A simple word.
But it’s a word I will live with forever,
Because of you.

Pain.
A simple word,
That I hope you feel everyday,
Because as I fall deeper in,
I’m going to bring you down with me.
