The pain is deep and hot, piercing my lungs as I try to breathe. I try and speak, but no words will come. Just tears falling on my cheeks. I try and move , but I am frozen. This is it my heart screams, my life is over. My eyes watch as the stars fall from the sky. I see the sunshine fade, and the moon turn black. I try and see the colors in a rainbow, but they are all gone. All the colors have disappered. I try to hear, but all is silence, not one sound. I try and feel, but all is hopless, all that is left is a deep empty void. Then the feeling comes strong, pain, such blinding hot pain. For I relaize.... that you my only love, is now gone.

Betty the truth about this poem is that our emotions can be more painful than physical pain, and really become physical pain. Very powerful poetry. Parker |
