child of pain

         
i call to my pain        
from deep in its depths        
it answers back        
       
"i hear you          
but I can't feel you yet        
you haven't connected with me        
in sometime    
         
you're a neglectful landlord        
with a room to let        
you leave me to keen        
inside a black heart    
         
eating what's left        
of yesterday's tears        
& tomorrows that never come        
         
i sing the song of the lonely        
of fallen hero's unsung        
they went down with a fight        
each & every last one        
         
the emotions        
that made you human        
cast out into the night         
         
left for the wolves        
you watched          
while they were eaten alive    
         
you fail to cry for them        
so i do        
do you know me?"      
         
"i'm the child that cries        
alone        
deep inside you"
