About the Poem

In life, we are faced with losing our first loves and are best friends. We have to face the pain of losing our loved-ones to death. We live with our regrets of the mistakes we make in life.

How can you love and trust again when you have been hurt over and over again at a young age. How do you get past all this pain. This is reality.

Reality

by suthern

Death, departure, walk away, walk out
Should I or should I not pout

Family and friends
Lovers and one-night stands

I have loved, lost and lived
How do I trust, how do I love again

I should move on, it's all in my past
But my pain remains, continues and lasts

This pain lingers in my heart, mind and soul
Damn it - why is this world so cold

How can I have faith in God and family
When people I love are taken from me

Where can I find true and loyal friends
I'm sick of the lies, fights and revenge

Hurt continuously, hurt at a young age
How do I love again with all of my rage

How do I get past all of this, show me a sign
So I can leave my sadness, pain and crying behind

Your poem describes what alot of young kids feel today . i really like it b/c its what i felt these past few years of my life. with all the pain giving up, the drama i had with old friends. you put into words feelings i couldnt express to any one b/c no1 would understand.

Ann

This poem. touched me because I can relate to it. I'm walked on by all my friends but i'm too submissive to do anything about it. My one flaw is that I talk to other people about it and tell them things I shouldn't. I get myself in trouble and I can't get out. I'm currently in Depression and just seem to be going further. Reality. is something so surreal and there's hardly any good things anymore. I feel the same way. ~Ann S.
