Pain Poem
Pain pain go away and come again another day.
Or never preferably.
Oh how I wish I could divorce you from my life.
I would sign those freeing papers so fast.
A lifelong companion always around me in some form.
I don’t recall inviting into my life.
***
I always know when they come around.
Walls close in far too tight.
Colors become one dimensional.
Food loses its flavor.
Breathing a ragged panting chore.
Hated in every aspect.
***
Why do you like me more than everyone else I know?
How could I be so interesting.
Is it something I did or said?
Or could you have been interested in me from the beginning.
When will you leave again?
O count the seconds.
