What hurts the most...

WHAT HURTS THE MOST……?

 

 

 

Waking up and getting ready for the day,

Living everyday but being trapped in this old hutch.

Yes, I can…I can live my life all this way,

As… that does not bother me much

 

I'm not a felon or committed any serious crime,

Then why am I paying such a great cost.

Of only loving you even more than my life,

But that is not what hurts the most….

                                     

To walk alone without any destination in this rains,

To lonely cry these tears and letting them to meet the sea.

To have an empty heart but with so much pain,

But now none of them hurts me…

 

Whenever I meet our old friends, I force a smile,

As I have no answer for their questions about us.

Whenever I see your photograph, a tear rolls out of my eyes,

But that does not bother me so much…

 

Often when I close my eyes, I hear your voice,

Saying that "I'm still here by your side…"

I have no other choice than to live with this void,

But now I'm fine as for that I have already cried.

 

 

 

Whenever they ask me – Then… " What hurts the most…? "

All I could say is …. ….

 

 

What hurts the most was being so close

Having so much to say but watching you walking away

And pretending all the way that everything is just ok

To wait for you every night and every other day

 

Hallucinating myself that one day you would be back again

Unselfishly still loving you and every pain which you gave

Recollecting the words which I kept in my heart but never said

Those words which I left unspoken for always

Still I'm living but with every second I have this regret.

 

That the last words which you said was – "I love you, but…"

How you made me feel like... "What more could I do?"

Else I have no other complain from you…

 

Masochistically I'm getting it very well with this ache,

Out of which I know I can't come back.

Superfluity of this pain now began to take its toll,

The thing which hurts the most… was being so close…

 

 

 

.....

 

 

 

What hurts the most…was being so close…. ….

Author's Note

Bhavya Kaushik
Totally inspired by the song "What hurts the most" :)
And the lines - "What hurts the most was being so close
Having so much to say but watching you walking away" has been taken from the song itself...
So..that's it..
:) :)

It is also like... an half acrostic work ..I mean the one of "What hurts the most " :D

Out of which I know I can't come back.

I think so too. Your feelings are too intense and your attachment is too much. Perhaps it is your sensitivity that draws such great poems out of you.
If one has loved truly, it is not possible to forget or replace that love with another, no matter how 'worldly perfect' the latter happens to be.

As you get better with every work, I find that I'm running short of words to review you!!

I have read poems about many heart breaks , poems full of pain and sorrow.
But this one stands out from whatever I have read so far. I consider myself very small to say that this is amazing. Because it is even more than that, And I don't have proper words for that.... You are a master of writing poems like this!

Yes! I have heard of that song, I liked it. But I loved this poem, It is like you made it even better! Specially with the acrostic one.

Wow! I am always amazed by the passion you are able to put into your work. It seems like you really had someone you loved because much of your work is focused on it. But love comes and goes and I am confident you will find the right person. The poem totally supports everything love is about because often we are so close and then it is ripped away. I also loved how you used the words from one of my favorite songs. Great job!
