Just When You Thought
And just when you thought
you are already susceptible to pain,
there will come another heartbreak--
more afflictive than all the hurt
that you've ever experienced.
And just when you thought
you can handle situations like this,
the undeniably searing pain
wounds every inch of you
until you could bleed no more.
And just when you thought
you conditioned your heart
to become emotionless,
you feel the devastating part
of being shattered once again.
Vexacious.
Irksome.
Disturbing.
