Pain

Poem by Brittni Kellum

My soul is buried deep within a pool

of shame, dark sorrow overwhelms my heart

for you, I’ve been a shameful wretched fool

listening to hidden clues was the key part

never realizing the purpose of storms

so always they invaded our true love

and like a weeping widow sweetly mourns

the death of a cherished lover above;

will vibrant visions flee thy tortured soul?

nigh’ nigh’ in a thousand years imagined

I would be the suspect of life, so dull

Without you existence becomes so hardened

for now I must move on to never recall

the beauty love all baggage that I haul
