Days of Pain

My passed few days have been really quite dark
They have struck me deep right to the heart
My head has been tormented with awful things
They just keep at me like savage hornet stings 
Why didn’t others see what I was going through
The nasty things he did, they just grew and grew
I was left to struggle with every passing day
My plans were to go away so I never have to stay
Walking on the edge of life was never far from me
I just wanted it all to stop so that I could be set free
I am still carrying all these sad thoughts in my head
I feel like a lost spider, with life hanging on a thread
Why does hurt ache so much every long passing day
I am losing all my strength in a draining kind of way
I will just keep going with no where else to go
 like walking in a blizzard till you freeze in deep snow
