The Curtain of Pain Fell Upon Us

Scream, Vomit, Cry, and Cuss As the curtain of pain fell upon us Yet it covered nothing for me Each person outside still peered inside ~ my soul to see ~ It persisted, It literally dwelled A stench that couldn't be quelled I couldn't foresee the possibility In fact, I vehemently abhor this At first, I thought it's my own senility I tried to shake it off like a dog, after its bath, will wildly shake I told myself, "Certainly it must be fake." My God, my God, did you weigh the stakes? Doesn't matter if the curtain is open ~ or closed ~ The pain of Betrayal is superimposed She blows a breeze of Torrential Woes For there is No Veil, Betrayal leaves a trail Yet, the years have whispered, "You can run far!" Reality shouts," It's just another scar!"
