Who knew it could hurt so much?

Who knew it could hurt so much?

A Poem by SarahCortland
"

The pain we go through is often unbareable but often not understandable either so we question who knew or who knows when even we did not know

"
Who knew it could hurt so much?
That first smile.
That first kiss.
That first thing seeming worth while.

Who knew it could hurt so much?
That first sign.
That first love.
The first time you lied saying you were fine.

Who knew it could hurt so much?
The first tears.
The first fight.
The first time facing your fears.

Who knew it could hurt so much?
The first scar.
The first drop of blood.
The first time not knowing who or where you are.

Who knew it could hurt so much?
That first goodbye.
That first time you knew.
The last of all the lies.

That only you could realize it hurt.  
That last touch.
That first realization.
But who knew it could hurt so much?

Great, great, great write! Very emotional, but clear.

The one thing I would say is you might want to re-word this lines, "That only you could realize it hurt." It is just a little awkward. I had to stop in the middle which was distracting.

OTHERWISE! I love it. Truly.

This is a very sensitive beautiful piece. It connects with my feelings perfectly in a sad way and i hope itf you felt this way you get over it better because no one should have to go through pain like i imagined reading this. This made me cry

I love the question at the end and how you let the person reading make the answer almost. Very clear and emotional. Loved it!
