Pain

Pain

‘’Pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding’’,
it is both teacher and master.
It’s 3:22 a.m. and she’s holding back these tears,
with arrows laced with poison dislodged from her soul where her screams drown in darkness.
Her insatiable longing for heaven is both dark and beautiful;
her ache for heaven is excruciating…
last time she was here she was waiting for the prefect storm to come take her.

Isn’t pain supposed to pass?
Is it not a fleeting lesson?
How long will she be in session for?
When is her lesson ending?
Pain has filled her heart with so much anger and nothingness,
it has become a part of her,
making her one of its own.
