Hurt and Pain

Hurt And Pain For all the hurt and pain you gave me, in exchange for the pain you left in me. I'll dedicate a song to you. When we sing we don't feel sorrow, or pain. as we sing, we can curse, or we can bless. Listen to the song and listen well and you will see - there is no more hurt, there is no more pain. You are no more what you once were. I won't wait for you anymore. I won't cry for you anymore. I want to smile, I want to laugh, I want to be happy again. If you want to come back - you'll be taking a chance. I'll play your game, but I'll do it my way. I'll have to be first, there is no other way. I'll play my own cards and I won't lose. So what do you say - do you still want to play... 09/29/2013 Written by Lucilla M. Carrillo

Lucilla This is so deeply touching and very honest and truthful. The words came right from a wounded heart and doesn't hold anything back. Thank you for the wonderful comment on my My Way poem.

Emotional poem beautifully penned. I think it's one sided sacrifice, is it not? Certain things are there like certain people, no one can change them in any way. Stubborn heart not knows what the love is because of selfishness, I do think. Thanks for sharing this. Loved always, bl

I think you should change the poem title to "Do you still want to play" to me that moves you to being in control and it matches more the tone of this piece. It speaks to your power as a woman. Whatever the title, it is a well expressed idea and poem. Hugs Rick.

A tender heart by nature, unfortunately, remains a tender heart: Vulnerable! Hope you find the courage to stand up to him! Great writing!

I know what you mean, whenever I sing it does take away the pain, sorrow, and the hurt! And if I hurt that much to want to sing away the blues I probably wouldn't let that person back into my life unless she has shown and proved her change to me, that I wouldn't feel the hurt and pain again! I really enjoyed reading this incredible poem this evening! What a tremendous piece here my friend, Great Work!!
