' Feel My Pain.....'

This is a story about those who Have been hurt by the one's they love; the crying, pain and suffering In your heart. The night's when you cry yourself to sleep……. When you can only turn to yourself for help, but even then, You are still only left in your pain……… “ I find myself walking along the edge…… Cold air rushes pass my face. Below, I hear the roaring of The ocean’s tides under me……. It start's to bring back the memories. The memories I have of her. The rush I felt from hearing her talk…. When she would say my name. With one single look, she made my body melt. She had my soul. She had my heart. She was my keeper, but she tore my soul apart… My foot slips, and I hear the rock's splash into the raging water below. I am awakened from my dream state, but still in my pain. I look at the night sky….. The moon so full. I look at The stars; billions and billions of stars in the night sky….. Can they feel my pain? I want to be a star, I want to fall….. Fall forever and Let the tides below catch my body; take me away from this pain…… The wind blows, screaming through out the trees….. Whispering to me all of it's sad sorrow's. Telling me about all of the silent Cries from all of the broken hearts, all of those stars. All the one's who are trapped in their pain. A light shines from the Forrest. The crackle of wood is heard. I turn around, but still on the edge. ' Is that you Jon.' she says in a desperate voice. I look into her face, I see her pain. It is to late. I am to close to the edge, To far to come back. ' Jon, what are you doing?' she says. I reply…'Dancing, walking the wire, making my closure.'…. I turn my head and look at the water. Emotions rush through out my body; my pain comes upon me, I start to cry. The reflection of the moonlight gleams upon my face as the tear's pour down. She walks closer. I step back further. ' Come on Jon, you are being ridiculous, come, let's go and talk about this.' She says. ' You don't love me, why did you hurt me?' I say. ' I didn't mean to.' she says. I reply, “ You didn’t mean to? How long have I been there for you?…..I was the only one who has always been by your side……I was the friend when no one was around, I was your lover when no one else loved you…..and now you tell me you never meant to hurt me…..when all along I was just hurting myself!”....She replies, " Take my hand, come with me. I will help you." She stretches her hand out. It felt like she was reaching across eternity to bring me Back from the depth's of hell. I turn to her…….. I see her pain……. I start to reach out for her hand, but I stop And look at her face. ' Now you can feel my pain.....' I open my arms to the stars above and jump off the edge, into the darkness, away from my pain...…..” -NytepoetryI really wanted to work on this one, but it one of my personal favorites.
