Pains Where Feelings Should Be

These pains

Pains that hide in the system

Pains that can't be seen

Pains that live in the night hours

Pains that make the mind bleed

These pains stay forever

These pains will never leave

Pains that call you to end it

Pains that others will feel

Pains that laugh in the quiet

As you beg on your knees

Pain of blood pumping in you

Pain of having to breathe

Pain of living in your head

Where the world is not what it seems
