Poem -
Pain
Pain was not that time you hit me
fists raining down upon my face and my head.
Pain was that shard of bitter ice
through my heart,
that I was not the Princess you said.
A thousand punches would hurt less
they only left me numb,
but that topple from my gilded throne
left me shattered, left me undone.
Pain is the thought that my Knight
abandoned his gallantry and his white steed.
Pain is the tumbling down of our house of cards
based on one heartbreaking, irreversible deed.

Thank you so much Tony. It was hard to write, but I'm glad I did. I'm not very good at expressing myself, sorry, so apologies for the short response...but thank you so much for the welcome ❤️
I hoped people would get this. I could've written loads of words, but seemed to make more sense this way. It is true. Thanks for comments/support. Xx
