The Pain

How do I get out of this?
I want to lose my memory so I no longer think of  you
You said you would never let go 
That is what I don't understand.
So many promises you made, 
And more of them broken.
Nobody knows it's painful.
They think that I am strong.
Nobody knows I miss you.
They think I am all set free,
Nobody knows I need you.
They think I can do it on my own,
Nobody knows it's empty,
The smile that I wear.
Nobody knows I am crying.
They won't even see my tears.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed."
