Searing

You left so easily, 
for solid reason too, 
I stopped seeking caress and love
Only harshness and brutality 
Cold air and freezing rain
It makes me feel alive 
I’m ****ed up gone 
Blasted awake 
I’m stoic Irish 
And I’ll take it to the grave.
Night is my day
And I’m searching for a light 
So far away
