it still
hurts
they said it
would get
better but it feels
like it's getting
worse all the time and
no matter what i
do i always imagine that someday
i won't feel anything at
all except the pain
that they said
would go
away

imagining
that i
would find myself
laying in a ditch
bleeding out and i would
crawl through thorns as if they
were feathers that wished only
for me to feel
something that was
not the
same

but
someday we will
find out if they lied or
just wanted us to feel better
and what difference
will there
be

for i will still feel the
pain
