the pain of loss

i'm a man, not a hero

the pain of loss,

is such a pain,

it does not give,

it only gains.

 

the pain of loss

is something known,

to every person

whose heart has been sewn

 

the pain of loss,

is one, i guess

of a multitude

so large in magnitude

impossible to comprehend.

 

the pain of loss

is straight and true

it does not dither

and waste words with you

 

the pain of loss,

to you, my friend,

binds every man,

to their bitter end

 

the pain of loss,

as you succinctly said,

was the creak of springs,

of an empty bed.

 

the pain of loss

as we all knew

is a trial that is

not new to you

 

the pain of loss,

i surmise,

was too clearly seen,

in your eyes.

Emo :P HAHA! Just kidding :] It was painful. It was,, good :]

it is a nice poem, except that, the rhythm and rhyme makes it sound a little too bright and happy, contrasted to the sad theme it bears. Other than that, good work.
