All that Remains
pushing past the pain
and all that remains
is will
a primal instinct to stand
as you are forced to bend a knee
pain is all I have left to tell me I'm alive
pain then is my only friend
a tether to reality
the last tie to my sanity
the last coherent through
before downing in this simpering rot
is that love is also pain
and all that remains
is a masquerade
as life slowly fades...

I feel fucked up a lot...
Twas synchronistic, empowering and inspiring
to see this poem...)

Thank you Cipher, sorry it has taken so long to reply, yet I feel your pain as if my own. Misery loves company, maybe we can drowned our sorrows one day over a pint.
