The scar, the pain, the hurt Poem, by Algendhir, at My poetic side

After countless nights,

Waiting for you to come home

Telling myself not to worry

While you went on with your life

Without explanations or reasons

This is the scar you made

After countless lies,

Expecting you to change

Asking myself: Is it worth it?

While you kept hammering the nail

With false remorse and emotion

This is the pain you left

After countless cries,

Believing in a new beginning

Numbing myself with rhetoric

While you discarded me and left

Without a glance at my youth

This is the hurt you caused

So many times and so many chances given for it all to end up in the same situation. Doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result. How many of us do that out of blind hope.
