A/N: Well, I just was looking around an old notebook I had lost a few months ago, and I found all those poems. I decided that some of them were pretty good, and decided to bring it up for my favorite critcs, the people of Fictionpress. If you could kindly review after reading, telling me if you like it or not. That'd be really nice. The spacing on Fictionpress also sucks right now.

But I don't want to sound like a review whore.

5.7.08 Edit- I fixed the spacing!

This is life

“The Hurt”

It hurts
Between the lies,
the confusion,
the pain
It hurts.

Every step
is weighed,
keeping me stuck to the ground,
dragging me down.
It hurts.

Every breath
punching at every bone,
every tissue,
every nerve
stinging
It hurts.

Every heartbeat
crushing against my chest
trying to push out the hurt
the blood boiling.

Everything hurts.
