pain

NinjaGirl

I don't know where it's coming from

but it's all inside me I know that

it's from the past I get that

but is it this or that I don't know

what to heal if it just hurts

where is the pain coming from now

as I hold the metal in my hand

it's coming from my skin now

I know how to fix that pain

    Again a dark write and it ends leaving the reader concerned. Does pain take away pain? A most emotional write

    • NinjaGirl

      oh my, don't be concerned! it makes the pain subside, distracts you from what hurts with new hurt. 10/10 not recommended I'm not trying to endorse it!

      I swear you and I are like synched or sending mind vibes or something! I am now going out to dance under the waning moon before a snowstorm after experiencing this beautiful serendipity! I just finished writing a poem that is eerily similar to what you just shared! Like eerily! Mine will be posted tomorrow. But that is enough about me, my friend. I totally get this poem. It speaks my language; it expresses a reality I know personally. Not that this is the first time. I really do find a home in your work, my friend. This poem is so powerful because I know so many other people experience this and, wow...just wow! Well done! 🌹👏

        Really! I do believe this means you are obligated to send it to me and let me see it before anyone else... hahaha! I sure hope it's a home open all year round with warm hot chocolate on the stovetop. that way when you come in from your late-night dance, there's a treat waiting I can't wait to see yours!

        A powerful poem of the past and healing, this definitely touched me.

          I'm so glad it resonated with you!

          Well written. Though depressing it may be. One thing I've learned is that at least pain let's you know your alive. Which is probably better then being dead. I'm not saying embrace pain but take it for what it is. A knock on your consciencness saying "hello, your still alive".

            Very true, and a very wise comment. It's better than feeling nothing at all, I've decided. Thank you for reading!
