The pain of it all

Justa poem I wrote about a shadow trapped in everyone elses pain/

 

They left

They’re gone

No longer here to comfort the soul

That knows the pain of it all

 

They smile widely

Abandoning the depression Arcadia

Leaving the broken soul

Who knows the pain of it all

 

They came with the storm

Riding the winds torrents

Because they started to understand

Understand the pain of it all

 

The pain of it all

Is the anger felt towards backstabbers

The hatred that builds and recedes

The fear of being abandoned ant left

 

The pain of it all

Is the use and abuse

The trials and the fails

The destruction and the loss

 

 

But eventually they shove it away

Eventually is bury it

Eventually they try to hide it

Try to hide the pain of the house

 

Some come back

Others pass with a sympathetic glance

Most never return

To learn more about the pain of it all

 

But this shadow

This broken, torn, pain-filled shadow

Tries to embrace its home

Embrace the pain of it all

 

But this shadow

This kind, loving, caring shadow

Is left to drown and flounder

In the pain of it all

 

Pain, Hatred, anger, sadness

Drip down from the dark ceiling

Constricting the heart that cries for comfort

As it’s tortured by the pain of it all

 

Warmth, care, love, desire

Cannot penetrate the dark net

But provide a rope for escape

From the pain of it all

 

But the shadow

The sad, loveless, nobody shadow

Is left alone

In the heartless pain of it all
