So hurt to hurt you

A tear trickles down my face,
When I think, that I hurt you.
My heart withers with pain,
When I think ,that I hurt you.
My sensations become numb,
When I think , that I hurt you.
You are my whole world, why did I hurt you?

I am so hurt, to hurt you.
When I think that I hurt you.

"Each man kills the thing he loves...Oscar Wilde

To cause hurt is worse than receiving it because of the guilt attached. Good poem.

I can feel the remorse. It is hard when we hurt someone we care about!

That so resonates with me at the moment. A very hurt person in my life but she wont say how she was hurt. *sigh*

I can really understand the feelings in this poem. So hard when one knows one hurt a loved one.

why is it we hurt the ones we love? maybe because at times we take them for granted...or that love...but we do...felt this one before...

The pain of hurting our loved ones cuts deep into the heart, may be yes, we sometimes take them for granted. But still the care in hearts remain the same.

My favorite lines:

I am so hurt, to hurt you.
When I think that I hurt you.

Very well done with this challenge ~

sometimes we just don't know what it is that makes us hurt those we love

How sometimes the conscience keeps 'reminding' oneself. In most instances someone dear is the one who gets hurt! Nicely Vandana

It can feel so sickening to hurt the ones we love...you capture that feeling well.

This is very profound.. why we hurt the one we love... great take and smooth poetry here.

When we hurt those we love most, we are only really hurting ourselves, but still we can't help ourselves at times.

I love the way this poem presents the dilemma.

This is a reflection that I'm sure we all can relate to. And "when I think" worked so well.
