Fate of Pain

FATE OF PAIN What shall I do with this pain? Blooming deep within my bosom Light it up in flames and afire Latent joys of a life obscure? Or quench away in heavenly flow? A sweet drowning of senses glow Or should it be blunted with words? Hollow sounds to wounded ears Or let it run like a river swift? Cutting beneath deeper still Until the mighty heart ruptures From pastures to chasm dark But, alas! I know its piteous fate Submerged in naive smiles it stays Tendered by the daily aches Until one night the reaper comes And release the muse from its deadly sneer.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
