"Thats the thing about pain, it demands to be felt."


I come home awaiting the verdict,

Hastily opening my computer

I log onto Instagram,

Checking my latest post

A picture of my dog and I.

There it is

The hate.

 

You have no friends!

Screams one faceless, unknown username.

You’re a loser!

Another yells.

All the terrible comments,

Arrows being shot

Ambushing me,

Each one embedding itself deep in my heart.

My peers and so called friends

Have written these.

 

I think

Why would they lie?

Maybe they aren’t.

Are all these things true?

Am I a loser?

I must be,

Why else would they say I am.

 

After seeing the same thing

Over and over again,

I have finally accepted

That it must be

The truth.
