Stop the pain before it kills me
Night and day it rules my life
Fourteen years of ruined existence
…Mourning loss of love and life.
Memories that live to haunt and
Redirect my soul to pain
Like a darkened torture chamber
…Strikes my heart…again and again.
Unsuccessful redirection
Burying deep an untoward past
Love that cannot be forgotten
…Broken heart…and scars that last.
Time pretends to heal the wounded
Years roll by…with more ahead
But the memories resurface
…Adding pain…though nothing’s said.
Hearts will not live on forever
Even dulling finds the brain
Hope exists to stop the memories
…Death will one day…stop the pain...hope soon.
Painful steps with nerve-ends fraying
Shards of glass bring vocal braying
Not a minute of cessation
And no sight of dissipation
Torment pulsing like a clock
Every second…pain’s tick-tock
Grimaces and grinding teeth
Cover that which lies beneath
Creaking joints that often malfunction
Lead to silence and compunction
Set apart from recreation
I pray, for once consider me human, just like you
Kept alive with medication
Till the rising of the sun
…Declares another night is finally done...
