Invisible-Wound

As i cause conflict
between pen and paper,
my mind takes a journey, 
going back to the how
we used to be.

Tears are instantly 
released 
from my eyes.
Memories stored in my 
mind arise. 

Hidden secrets of my 
undiscovered
fear becomes exposed,
i scratch my old wounds 
hoping to see blood.

Blood which symbolizes 
pain,
shall my wound be noted
when i become pale?

Invisible wound neglected
for it can't be seen with
the naked eye.
Invisible wound rejected,
because no doctor is  
qualified enough
to heal it.

How long shall i remain
with a wounded soul?
How long will i que up to 
see a surgeon to take my 
beyond repair heart out
and give me a new heart,

A heart capable of 
trusting again,
a heart able to love 
unconditionally again.  
A heart that will pump 
blood and not pain.
A heart that will beat 
and not fear to love.

This wound bleeds 
internally and everytime i 
try to forget about its 
agony,
i wish i could just see it,
because this invisible 
wound will have me 
thrown in a deep pit

I-Am-Torn

Lament of my heart
sang by my soul.
Remarks of the hurt
visible through thy hole.

This pain in deadly fatal,
my aim is to have it 
bandaged,
the agony is getting 
worse
damn you've hurt me and 
now i'm toxic.

I hide my pain and 
wounds 
behind my wide smile.
I avoid watery eyes
by remindin myself 
about what we used to 
be 

I'm torn deep inside 
my rib cage.
My organs are interrupted
by the cuts your 
neglectance
has caused to my heart.

My patience and 
perseverance seem 
to lack due to the damage
you done in my soul.

I bleed the reaction
i do when my blood
circulation is disturbed
by the blood clots caused
by the pain you've caused 
me. 

My brain aches,
my heart is wounded,
my mind is swollen,
my soul is over stitched

I'm torn and nothing 
can be done to fix me up,


I give away my boots,
hand in my membership 
card,
hang my jersey,
leave the field 
and quit the game... 
 
T.O.R.N!!!
