The Place I Keep Returning to...The Place of Pain Poem
by Kayla
(MS)
I keep returning to that place.
That place of hopelessness,
Of dying, lying, and not trying.
I try to appear happy
Even when I'm far from it.
That place is what I like,
Not because of the comfort,
But because of the pain.
The pain that accompanies
Every word, every scar
Lasts a lifetime.
Why do I keep going back
If all I get is hurt?
That's my familiar spot,
The place I visit most.
