Each night before I lie myself down to sleep, I ask the Lord “Why oh why must I suffer this pain I feel deep inside of me?”

For is is not a pain of joy and happiness.
Nor is is a pain of sickness.
For it is a pain of hurt, sorrow, and depression.
Why do I get this pain?
What did I do to deserve this?
Is it some sort of punishment of the past years of my life?
Do I deserve this pain that I am receiving?
The hurt I feel is like a knife in my back.
The depression I feel is from the cruelty from those around me.
The sadness I feel is very deep and mysterious to me.
When, I ask you my Lord, when will this pain stop?
I beg for your help my God.
Help stop this pain I feel.
For I think this pain I am feeling is going to do more than hurt me.
Why oh why, does this pain make me weep?

    is this supposed to be poetry. it’s more like a journal entry than a poem. a thoughtful one but yet, don’t call it poetry…
