Pain

You've hurt me to the point I'm numb
Made me like a wretch in the slums
You've served me bowls of immense pain
You've shown who you are, clear and plain

You punished me hard for my deeds
Despite our years, and our 'lost seeds'
You've shown me pain beyond nightmares
And yet still you say that you care

How much more of this should I take?
Where I am pushed until I break
My heart is shattered, torn apart
In breaking me, you played your part

I'm done with all this hurt you've caused
And yes, I'm dealing with my flaws
So to your dismay, I've survived
No room left for pain in my life
