AMISS

it hurts, it hurts deep & it hurts some more
but, after a while, when it has hurt enough
it will hurt no more
it is rude, it is resilient and it is rough
the pain i feel is like Phoenix
it emanates from inside me
goes away, dies and lets me be
rises again, greater than before
turns me into a creature who can love no more
i am naked as a whore
i see ahead, i look above
only to see my own shadow
and m broken heart
i am my own foe
it wasn't meant to be, i was a curse from the start...
