The pain doesn't go

[sadlonelyguy]

You cannot know the pain
to be on your own again.
They say it's better
to have loved and lost
than never to have loved at all,
but I wonder every day.
Do those who said those words
full know the cost of a broken heart
weeping hopelessly
into my lonely pillow?

Self-pity is not the most attractive of emotions.

I like this poem. It reminds me of when my favourite goat died. It was many years ago, but I still feel the pain when I look at her hooves which I have hanging on my wall.

She was called Mavis... and now I'm crying. :-(

Poor Mavis.
