Like A Knife

There is a type of hurt

That can bring you to your knees

There is a type of hurt

That you fear will never ease

 

There is a type of hurt

That can break your soul

A gut wrenching pain

That leaves a gaping hole

 

There is a type of hurt

That can make it hard to swallow

You try to scream but make no sound

And there's no answer that follows

 

You're gasping for air

As you face the ground

And when you finally scream

It's the most piercing sound

 

You can't believe it came from you

Hyperventilating doesn't sum it up

You've lost what makes you breathe

And feel "forever stuck"

 

Grief can come in many forms

Loss of self, loss of love, loss of life

There is a type of hurt

That cuts through you like a knife

 

If you know this kind of pain

I'm so sorry that you do

This is the type of hurt 

That no one should go through

I have this time of pain

I have this time of pain twice in my life. It never heals and never 100 percent goes away.

 

Thank you for sharing this.
