Suffering

Screaming
I reach
Into the depths of my soul

I feel
Nothing but pain
Overwhelming
It burns so

Sobbing
I am overcome
My gut is wrenched
My heart is rent
I cannot feel hope

Choking
My mind explodes
I hear nothing but screams

My heart pounds
My limbs tremble

I take a deep breath

Subsiding
I look into the mirror
A lonely wreck stares back at me
Silently

The pain is palpable
The grief constant
My world has crumbled

I feel hollow
Lost for words
Shaken to the core

I will never love again
