i hope it was worth it.
the echoing innocence created a wall of happiness.
the purity of a young mind took over yet again.
days went on and on
and on,
until each moment felt slower, more adult like.
the decreasing uncertainty became this reality i had been unaware of for so long.
but,
once you open your eyes to the crumbling ash between your fingers,
the world seems
bleak.
now,
i live in a world filled with nothingness and confusion,
a place where i trust no one and no one trusts me.
i long for the feeling of not being able to feel,
so the love i have for you doesn’t dominate every other feeling that plagues me.
i live a life of pure unhappiness.
and,
it's because of you,
and the decisions you made.
you thought if you were happy, i would be too.
you wanted this,
for you.
and that's okay.
just let me ask you:
was it worth it?
-the feeling of pain resurrected

WELCOME FRIEND ~ Thanks for your first poem. YES it is a serious poem and an examination of trying to cope with life and its consequences. As we develop we move in and out of relationships with people ~ with things ~ with substances etc. It's all part of "growing up". We run parallel with our inner and outer world but as so often happens (in my experience too) one persons happiness can be another persons misery ! Thanks for sharing ~ a great poem ! Please check my Poems ~ Thanks BRIAN (UK)
Good emotive write.
