Pain

It lingers inside

Sometimes clear

Sometimes turbid

The darkness is where it lives

It thrives on the late

Where it must wait

As if my detriment wasn't bad enough

It takes my own tears to sting my wounds

The feel of my own torture takes my breath

Nothing came without the high tariff

She held me in her heart

She lived in mine

I loved with everything

With nothing left

It fueled me to part

The pain comes from within

Because I pushed a lover

I adored to the ends of the earth

Author's Note

Just some thoughts coming out.
