PAIN

Self explanatory

PAIN  

 

In pain.  The instant I was told

My family was gone, I felt cold

No one to be there for me now

Alone with my pain I bow, I bow

 

My heart.  Makes me want to weep

Hides unseen where the memories sleep

Don’t awaken my sorrow, please, I pray

Let it rest, for at least, one more day

 

I throb.  My head is going to split

Please don’t call me or I’ll throw a fit

Don’t wait for me, I’m not going to show

Alone forever is how I must go

 

I hurt.  Like I’ve been turned inside out

Allergic to my own skin no doubt

I’m sensitive, to every well meant touch

Let me go!  Let me go!  It’s much, too much!!

 

I ache.  I have tension everywhere

About tomorrow, I simply don’t care

My questions all begin with “Why?”

Why did they die? Why did they die?

Let me go! Let me go! It’s much, too much!!

Absolutely stunning, my heart ached when I read this poem. Keep up the good work my friend.

This poem almost makes me angry....my poem A Lonely Wind is the one that makes me cry.

This is not only well written but tears at the heart. The loss you describe is like a personal journey that either destroys you or slowly dissolves with the answer coming in increments. The pain is no less but you learn to keep living...somehow. I'm sorry for your loss. Great poem.

[Roger Turgeon]

Thanks for your kind words. Interestingly, I wrote this to try to capture another's pain not my own. But after every write I realize there is some of me in every poem.

Well you did a great job, and you're welcome.
