Nightmare of Pain
There is always a nightmare
that all loved ones know.
Knowing it can be hard to bare
as time seems to go slow.
Waking up one day
and all will be gone.
As you begin to pray
praying for a new dawn.
Waiting for reality to set in
braving those sleepless nights.
Questioning what it could have been
not seeing it in our sights.
Wanting to give into temptation
to end all the suffering.
No longer going in motion
to rid of all the wondering.
The urge to pull the trigger
increases by each passing minute.
Now feeling more bitter
about the pain that has taken route.
Stay strong and overcome
to plot a different course.
Wait for a new outcome
where you come out on top with force.
