You know that pain

~Saturday Stories~


1. You know that pain
That you don't let yourself feel
You know that ache
When you try to make yourself numb
You know that hurt
That you don't remind yourself of
You know...

Chorus:
So you box if up
In a neat, neat box
And send it far away
I don't want to deal with this now
So you block it off
And you build a wall
No one can see and you're all alone
No, I don't need any help right now


2. You know that pain
That invades you when you're all alone
You know that ache
When you can't take it anymore
You know that hurt
That haunts you in your dreams
You know...

Chorus:
Still, you box if up
In a neat, neat box
And send it far away
I don't want to deal with this now
So you block it off
And you build a wall
No one can see and you're all alone
No, I don't need any help right now

3. That pain, that ache
You know how much it hurts
Those screams, those tears
When you think no one else will know
Those cries for help
Uttered in the darkness
So,

Chorus:
Please don't box it up
In any box
Open it up
You need to deal with this now
Please don't block it off
Or build a wall
God sees you when you're all alone
We all need help right now

Bridge:
What if you said
I can open up now
What if you said
God, help me with my healing x2

Chorus:
I won't box it up
In any box
I'll open up
'Cause I need to deal with thiis now
I won't block it off
I'll tear down that wall
God sees me when I'm all alone
I need help right now

  1. Hi Sofia. I have not posted a comment in awhile because i've been busy but I just wanted to say good job on your poem. It hit home. I lost control of myself because of boxed up pain and also harassment i did not fully report to my dad. I went desperate after the first school football game of the year which my school won with a score of my school having 49 points and the other team having zero at the end of the game, but thats not the point. Some students who are notorious for targetting me specifically because i'm autistic and bipolar. They along with a few other issues made me convinced that as I put it in a text message to a friend:" With all the pro's and antis in this world this world clearly is anti me it's not your fault." I can be very suicidal Sofia. So once I got home i refused to move from my seat which is common when i'm finishing up a conversation online. 5 minutes latter after I was alone I decied that I was unneeded and got out of the car and was about to lay down on the street and try to get run over by a car and killed thus ending all my pain. My dad came out right before i laid down in the middle of the road and waited for a incoming car to instantly kill me . When my dad saw what I was doing he managed to convince me not to kill myself. This poem you posted was about pain and I go through a lot of that. Thank you for posting a poem I can relate to. xoxo. - Evan White
