Pain [July 15, 2016]A Poem by Dillan CourtrightHe lives within the tortured recesses of his soul Inside the darkness, where no one can stroll Dwelling within a faceless world divided by fear He would know this pain, but can no longer feel
An emotionally dead silhouette divided from society No words reach him, he is forever cloaked in anxiety Suffering within his mind, an everlasting war of pain Inside this meaningless world, his emotions are slain
Between the searing winds and the raging tide Inside the agony of his shallow tortured mind Locked in a battle between right and wrong Inside his misery is where he belongs
His transparent eyes consumed by forgotten despair In the depths of his pain, within his own nightmare An endless plague, filled with rotting decay and the heartless To fight against ignorance, torment and pain within silence
For he is a prisoner, shedding blank tears of compassion For a real world, he fights to bring salvation For this poisoned world, tonight he breaks his chains All he desires, is to free the world from pain
