It Hurts
By Arushi, age 20, India
It hurts,How would you know?
You just caused it
And left ...
It hurts,
So, so much,
To do things,
And not get anything - bereft ...
It hurts,
To love,
Someone who doesn't
Love you back ...
It hurts,
To be stuck,
In a whirlpool
Of pain, of love-lack ...
It hurts,
To never get
Healed -
To have a heart which is cracked ...
It hurts,
To wait
For something
That would not come ...
It hurts,
That in the game
Of "break the heart"
You won.
