The hurting

Dedicated to a dear friend

Having felt the same emotions, asked the same questions, I present the above image with emphasis on the thoughts behind it.  It recalls a song by Tears For Fears¹ which, for me, expresses the feeling and asks the questions.

The Hurting2 – Tears For Fears3 (Roland Orzabal) Is it an horrific dream Am I sinking fast Could a person be so mean As to laugh and laugh On my own Could you ease my load Could you see my Pain Could you please explain The Hurting Could you understand a child When he cries in Pain Could you give him all he needs Or do you feel the same All along You’ve been told you’re wrong When you felt it right And you’re left to fight The Hurting Get in line with the things you know Feel the Pain Feel the sorrow Touch the hurt and don’t let go Get in line with the things you know Learn to cry Like a baby Then the hurting won’t come back

Could you, please explain The Hurting?
