Shadows of pain

“Pain, a shadow that follows me,

A constant reminder of what used to be.

A weight that presses upon my chest,

A hollow echo that refuses to rest.

 

It seeps into my bones, a chilling cold,

A numbness that spreads, a story untold.

It whispers my name, a haunting refrain,

A sorrow that clings, a heart in pain.

 

In the silence, it screams my name,

A deafening roar, a soul in flames.

It’s a fire that burns, a sea that’s deep,

A wound that gapes, a heart that weeps.

 

Pain, a teacher that’s harsh and cold,

A lesson that’s learned, a story that’s old.

It shapes me, molds me, breaks me, makes me,

A masterpiece of scars, a soul that’s freed.

 

So let the pain come, let it wash over me,

Let it cleanse my soul, let it set me free.

For in its darkness, I’ll find a spark of light,

A glimmer of hope, a heart that’s still alive tonight.”
