#20 of My Poems

please don't ask,


I feel like fire races about through my body,

My nerves crackle in my mind,

Pain lances through out my form.

Even as the thunder rumbles outside,

I can feel the lightning swirling through the clouds,

It crackles and crashes,

The sound rough on my ears.

Even as I writhe in pain,

My mouth clenches and teeth grind,

I fight to focus through this trail,

This challenge given to me.

I try to adapt and feel disbelief in myself,

When i find myself growing accustomed,

Even as it grows, I find myself withstanding more pain.

It feels heavy, this knowledge that i keep to myself..

But i keep the record, Watching how the world changes,

The weight of it all on my shoulders,

The beauty, The darkness,

I see it all, as if shards of glass are in my head,

Stabbing and cutting even as i understand.

That is the curse i bear,

to see all, to sense all,

to know what lies beneath the light,

And what stands in the dark.

I can only feel love for everyone,

Even as i want to destroy it all.
