A World of Hurt

I, too, know hurt.
Suffering, pain, all things we 
try to
disguise.
I see, and understand
What its like
To be left out in the
Dark.
 
I'm smarter than you think.
I may be young,
but my heart is
strong.
I see the world and know
what it holds.
 
So when, you’re smiling, 
I see, that it doesn’t quite reach
your eyes.
And only I know,
that your hurt is
mine. 
 
I, too, know that
there are better
tomorrows.
That happy endings do not
only happen in 
fairytales.
So when you’re down
and can’t get up.
Just remember 
that I am there.
 
And that
I, too, know hurt.
