Hurt

When you are so in love with someone

And that love becomes a pain

When you know you can be a good candidate

And all you get is an unrequited vote

When someone steals the love from you

Without them realizing what they did

When you exposed your heart too much

And it is already worn out

When the smile of only a someone

Is the only cure for every nightmare in your life

When she's only a few miles apart

But eternities away from your heart

When everything you taste every night

Are bitter apples and salt

When the reaper is by your bed

And the only salvation is her

When you know she can breathe and give life

To the arid lands of your life

When everything around you is destroyed

And have nothing but mute and blind witnesses

When you try to break every rule for that heart

But they decide to turn you to hellish justice

When your life becomes Samsara

While in reality you were looking for Nirvana

When you can't forget about her face

And she is every hallusination you see

When the world is full of empty, cold shadows

And she denies you her light

When she wonders what to do with destiny

While you bear in your hands the velvet thread of love

When there is more than just a person in front of you

And she is only able to see a smoky mirror

When you poured all your spirit

When you wrote with all the ink running through your veins

When your spirit is nothing but a pile of broken ice

When you gave it all many times before, and you ended giving everything up

That's when life for a poet has ended.

He is trapped now in uncertainty.

He cannot think in another lover.

He cannot see inside his soul.

He is in primal suffering.

He's become a slave of toxic love.
