I Know What

Just a clarification, I guess.

I am no longer in pain,

but I know what pain is. 

I am no longer in love,

but I know what love is. 

I am no longer in my days of fair health,

but I know what health is. 

I am no longer in rapture,

yet, I know what rapture is. 

I don't quite understand why I have become so numb, or why I give my all to the people who give nothing in return. I must sound so greedy, so selfish, and so vague, but I have these feelings and accusations; they're getting in my way. I apologize for the incredibly rude aura I give off, and maybe it's not an aura and I'm actually a terrible person, but I really do try to be the best person I can, despite my unfair knowledge.

This sounds like a declaration of depression. Honest painful admission. I assume this was hard to write but I'm glad you were able to share with us

[Alao Taiwo]

Please try and complete it. it's incomplete, give it another verse (8 lines). You can do it. i'll be expecting

[RxQueen]

The collection of words so beautifully combined. You have written a very powerful piece.

[Reece Butler]

this is raw, and I admire you so much for that. never stop writing.

[Matthew Kult]

loathsomely honest.

Great Read
