Hiding from the sun
For fear of getting burned
Showing no emotion
Beacause of what I've learned
My soul is red and welted
All because of you
I showed you that I cared
And got hurt through and through
The pain will last a while
I can't sleep because it stings
Try to push it from my mind
And think of other things
Friends try to make me laugh
But it only works for now
Like a sunburn cream
A cover will endow
When the burn goes away
It leaves a nice tan
One that shows lessons
All for love of one man.

really sad poem
sorry you have to go thru this
guess this is one of life's realities
though unpopular and unfair
beautifully written poem pixie

Hey nice one here. I like the analogy of the sun cream only lasting a while symbolizing your friends making you laugh. Nice one.
Hope all goes well.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

whoa, seriously great poem. One of the few things all of humanity seems to share in one form or another is love. Great imagry with the burn and the tan. Love can take away a great deal, time, money, but one thing that can always be said is it's a lesson learned. Loved it alot, keep it up.

Lots of luck!

Excellent!  Great images and emotion, really moving.  I'm sorry that you had to deal with that experience, but as you stated,
