PAIN

the maelstrom of darkness sucks you down
weaving through the obstacles of pain- you try once
again
to make it through, one more time.
the pain gets a life of its own every time
facing it becomes harder and harder
life will go on know matter how bad it is.
whether your life will is another matter
They keep saying it will ease
with the passage of time
You know they lie. It is easy for them.
they are not the ones fighting for their sanity
each night as you battle
the demon which grabs your soul
and wanders until early morning light
