Pain

The pain is just too much,

Now I can't stand the common touch.

If this is what I have unfurled,

Then there's nothing more in this world.

My heart aches and cries for release,

Just wishing at any moment to be at peace.

Darkness is taking over too slow,

Sometimes I wish I could just let go.

Now the darkness closes in too fast,

I wonder if I will ever get past.

Now unable to see the light,

I know I must put up a fight.

At some point I must come up for air.

But now it's just too much to bear.

I fall to me knees and begin to plea,

Wondering why this has happened to me.

Now my tears are hitting the ground,

I guess some things aren't meant to be found.

Pain and darkness is all I see,

I wish someone would find the key.

Sometimes I think enough is enough,

Then I remember I must be tough.

I will never give up and I will never surrender,

I just want you to know that I will love you forever.

I must stay strong and know my worth,

For me to stay upon this earth.

I know there is little I can do,

But I will hold on forever to stay with you.
