Pain Is Me

Life is like a puddle of blood beneath your feet
like a barrel of lies spilled upon me
like undreamt dreams that engulf me
like the flames of a layer of hell
Like the rotten meat smell

Pain is how life is lived
Pain is not knowing when to forgive
Pain is when you want to die but its too scary to leave
Pain is my life and me
Pain is everything
