Internal Steampipe

This sensation is growing inside me.
It's absolutly unerving.
The boiling arisal of nothing
is empty yet returning.
Returning without a witness found
to see that I am hurting.
Only I can know what's here.
I alone am burning.
The mellow calm I render quietly
to the sudden lack of loving.
In this moment I clutch my fists
and fight the monster coming.
I close him off- my internal steampipe
from giving my disguise.
For all to behold.....nothing at all
but the glazing of my eyes.

J.H.

Curse not upon love, for it is the greatest of great things. Be it not love that curses you....but thy lack thereof. -J.D.H.

Excellent poem!
My favorite line is, "Only I can know what's here, I alone am burning."
Very well expressed, great job!

I like it. I think we all have that inner "demon" thing at times. Good write.
