How to hurt

Take it all back
Take it all away
Erase this condition
Clear from my mind

Outside I’m calm
I’m okay
I’m collected
Only as of right now

But Inside
I am screaming
My essence
is simply but torn
on the edge of disasters
You only made me easier to break
When I thought you could make me stronger

No, this isn’t just another ‘breakdown’
It’s the lesson of how to hurt
Taught to me by you

It was all happiness, hopeful bliss
Now it’s ever more
fading visions, images of you and I
A short chapter now forever locked in my past
a chapter that you probably no longer remember

All I’ve got to say
I’ve gotten to learn
is you taught me, you taught me
How to hurt
