Pain

Pain...it comes in many different ways
It can last for a few hours, or for endless days.
I haven't felt pain this bad in years
It brings me to my knees, filling my eyes with tears.
I need to vent, but I can't even let out a scream
These past 12 hours have felt like a horrible fucked up dream.
I'm not sure what to think, or even what to say
Everyone keeps telling me it will be ok.
I don't want ok, I want it to not be real, as if it's all been a lie
But it's not; I guess at one point everyone has to say goodbye.
I want this pain to go away, but that won't happen for a while
All I can do is sit here, trying not to be in denial.
To know I'll never see you again sends pain all over and chills down my spine
But of course if anyone asks, I'll give the common answer of 'I'm fine'.
I still can't comprehend the reason for this, there wasn't anything to gain
So I'll just sit here for the night, and try to ride out this overwhelming pain.
