Pain Inside Me
I keep so much pain
inside myself.
I grasp my anger
and loneliness
and hold it
in my chest.
It has changed me
into something
I never meant to be
It has transformed me
into something
I never meant to be.
It has transformed me
into a person
I do not recgonise.
But I don't know how
to let it go.
They say pain ends
but for me, it just numbs.
Only to come back
With a stronger force.
I don't know how much
more I can take.
Suffering, but pretending
that everything's okay.
I have so much to say,
yet I don't know
how to open up
to you
In a way that
doesn't make our
relationship awkward.
Will you accept me
when I reveal myself?
Or will you leave me
just like everyone else?
...Are you the true friend that I have been looking for?
