This Pain

A Poem by Vanessa

10/12/06

This pain
I feel as if it is a part,
Deep inside my heart,
That will someday make me go insane.
It makes life seem so plain,
Perhaps I was not smart,
And this made us grow apart,
Now things will never be the same.

I know we both hold deep inside
A strength that keeps our love alive
If once we held our lives together
Then we could set our differences aside
And once again we will survive
To make our love last forever.

-Zoila and Vanessa Alvarez
