The Pain (poem)
Persistent dreams won’t explain
Source of this meaningless pain
Echoed in nightly refrain
Which has me in endless before
-
Silence I wished to obtain
Something to deaden the pain
Reason is sought to attain
This spark which has opened my soul
-
Myself I fought to maintain
Person pursued by some pain
Mindless of nothing to gain
Uncertain of just where we were
-
One voice would make itself plain
Shouts from the incessant pain
Shouts meant to drive one insane
I turned to a window for air
-
As I went bleakness hailed rain
Drops which awakened more pain
Screams which would enter my brain
As from window something went wrong
-
Once more I awake in my dread
Uncertain of just where we were
Again in my endless before
Empty window to my pain
