Tom Bell Poet Dramatic Verse

Sweet and Sour Sunrise

Another day I awake
to yet another sunrise,
That I should be here at all,
to me a great surprise

Now the pain begins all over,
Another day for me to suffer
Do I greet the sun with joy,
Or another chance 
for life to destroy,

My teeth are clenched
in pain's eternal grimace,
My eyes mere slits of care
Would God think me remiss,
If my end I should so dare

I don't enjoy to be
in this situation
Where such thoughts
I should have at all,
All I ask of heaven
Is for this pain somehow
to grow small
