the pain
i see, i hear
is so deep to you,
the world
you are living in
is out of my view,
my heart
it aches so often
for i cannot understand,
the anguish
that is living inside your
minds land,
how i wish I could see the depth of
your soul,
to truly put myself there
to be swallowed whole,
then i might find the answers
that i struggle to see,
to be a part of you
living inside of me
then i would fully understand
all that you feel,
and be able to help you
perhaps, finally heal
for too many years
i have watched you
live this way,
it’s so hard to see you
like this,
day after day
then i get so angry
and i think
what a waste,
i want to shake you senseless
then the emotions replaced,
for surely if you could
you wouldn’t live like this,
living in a hell
only the devil would
call bliss
my dread is that your life
will end before you see,
any ounce of pleasure
or happiness of any degree,
and i know
i can’t feel it more than i do,
that there is so much
sweet music,
deep inside of you
