This Pain

HOW DO I BEGIN TO EXPLAIN THIS PAIN?
THIS PAIN THAT I AM FEELING INSIDE
THE PAIN THAT HAS LEFT A HOLE
IN MY HEART
THE PAIN THAT WONT GO AWAY
HOW DO I FILL THIS VOID
THAT HAS BEEN CREATED FOR MY SUFFERING
WILL IT GO?
WILL IT DIE?
WILL IT GIVE ME BACK THE HAPPINESS I ONCE HAD
                                                              THIS PAIN HAS BECOME SO
ATTACHED TO ME
                                                               THAT I AM UNABLE TO SEE
WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS FOR ME
                                                               IT HAS CREATED THIS CLOUD
OVER MY EYES
                                                               THAT I AM UNABLE TO DO
ANYTHING BUT CRY,WEEP FOR RESCUE
                                                               BUT WHO WILL RESCUE ME?
                                                               IT HAS CREATED A RIVER OF
SORROW IN WHICH I SEE MYSELF
                                                               SINKING IN DEEPER AND DEEPER.
THIS PAIN I CANNOT EXPLAIN
WILL IT EVER GO AWAY?
WILL IT EVER BRING BACK THE BEAUTY
THAT I ONCE VIEWED IN MY EVERYDAY LIFE
OR WILL IT KEEP DROWNING ME
WILL IT KEEP ME IN THE DARK,
PREVENT ME FROM BLOSSOMING
I DO NOT KNOW.....
WHETHER "PAIN" WILL EVER LEAVE ME IN PEACE OR WILL IT KEEP ME IN SORROW
TO DIE SLOWLY EACH DAY
THIS PAIN HAS TAKEN OVER MY BODY
                            THIS PAIN!
