Pain and Relief

Patience, not disturbed by words,
works wonder
to hide the unrelieved pain
of a guilty conscience 
remaining the overburdened broken heart 
untouched by an unwanted peep 
into the turbulent mind
and the skeleton
thrown to its ultimate destination
where Peace serves the dried eyes
a perpetual relief
that the soul always looked for
to grow the flower of life.
