Pain is Love


Driving in a vehicle of escape
Directionless and fearless
Following the blurry streak
Of the heavenly lights
A meshing of time and pain
Creating a vision line of brilliance
And through an open window of despair
Winds carry away worries
And a drizzle from the sky
Attempts to drench the fire that
Blazes within a soul

A clouded mind
Unnaturally in tune with body and soul
Reacts without thought
Speeding down a path
Passing other lamenting souls
As if they were frozen in time
The skies now open up
Torrential rain
Splattering against your shield of reality
An opaque painting
Now streaked
Creating a portrait of sorrow
Further making somber
A searing temper

Thunderous cries bellow loudly
And lightning defiantly answers back
An opportunity for you to lose control
As fate licks its lips in delight
But there is something stronger than fate
And much older than death
As the storm outside gently resides
And the anger inside becomes a memory
Time and speed once again slow down
Life is again real
And a man is now returning home
To love again

Marcel

Write from the soul and the words will flow

Wow! This is outstanding, Keith.
"The skies now open up
Torrential rain
Splattering against your shield of reality

Creating a portrait of sorrow
Further making somber
A searing temper"

Incredibly vivid imagery.
