Pained

I’ve been hurt
I’ve been inflicted
I’ve been made humane
I’ve been deceived
I’ve been struck
I’ve been stabbed in the back
I’ve been left alone in the dark
I’ve been left to cry
I’ve been inconsolable
I’ve been pained
I’ve been segregated
I’ve been pushed aside
I’ve been shoved
I’ve been blinded
I’ve been forsaken
I’ve been forgetful
I’ve been selfish
I’ve been stupid 
I’ve been saved
I’ve been rebellious
I’ve been anxious
I’ve been a dogsbody
I’ve been desperate
I’ve been angered
I’ve been vexed
I’ve been taken for a fool.
