If I hurt you
I am hurting inside me
I have a hidden pain or hurt
Buried so deep inside of me
I cannot bear to feel
And so I find the pain in you
And I punish you for it
But I am not seeing you
Only some projection
So I am not seeing
That you am I
And I am you
We are in this together
In all the weathers
I cannot just make it rain on you
And run from the rain falling
Inside my own soul
You see we are a part of each other
But only pain and ignorance
Splits us off
From allowing this largess
When you ache
How can I not ache
When you cry
How can I not feel your sadness
Unless a very long time ago
I allowed life or someone’s wounded heart
To turn my own
To stone?
I am you π

I totally related with these poetic lines Deb…. through all the years of pain we shared…. there no was no where to run from the falling rain…..
“We are in this together
In all the weathers
I cannot just make it rain on you
And run from the rain falling”

We sometimes, unknowingly, impose the hurt we’d weathered onto someone else, and we ended up, hurting them, like we were, hurt ourselves, and the vicious cycle just, keeps on, rolling, rolling, rolling, nonstop!
