You hurt me by remembering,
Remembering, when you need me,
Forgetting, when I am alone
And sad and so life-weary.
You hurt me by asking favours,
When a hello would mean concern,
Sometime yesterday, when I had
Testing life lessons to unlearn.
You hurt me by being a part
Of worlds I never got to see,
You do not get to pity me
You can’t ask if I am lonely.
You do not understand now
What life will definitely show,
When it corrodes and torments you,
Then, then you will know.
