The place just beyond my eyes, where my spirit flies.

What constitutes pain?
Is it watching the one you love,
Love somebody else?
Or having all of your choices made for you,
By someone you don’t trust?
Is it missing someone you used to know,
When they’re standing right next to you?
Or your “friends” laughs at your screams,
When you snap you arm in half?
Is it the death of a loved one,
Or some kid down the street?
When you realize you can’t take it anymore,
And you kind of, just, give up?
Is it the tears rolling down our cheeks,
Or what’s inside that cause them?
The scars on your wrist from the razor blade,
Or the scars inside your mind?
Is it knowing that somebody really hates you,
Or that nobody really loves you?
Is it knowing that you are going to die,
Or is it even being born?

I loved this, epecially these lines" missing someone you used to know, when their standing right next to you." and " the scars on your wrists, or the scars within your mind."...really good, great emotion.

Pain is loving someone so much that you would do anything to help them, even if it's not what they think they need and then having them hate you for it.

I can't think of a pain I've experianced worse then that.  Physical pain is meaningless and worthless.  

Emotional pain.  That's where the scars start.

Good write.  Add one to your total.

(big hugggssssss) I guess everyone has a whole different philosophy on what pain is and therefore it is so difficult to explain! (sad sigh) But know the remedy is out there too in the whole same circulation, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sam, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Very well written. What gets me most is how these contrasting ideas were put together in questions... how they harshly expose the pains we unfortunately have to go through in life, one time or another, when nothing seems to be going right.  Great poem.
