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!"
