if i could bleed
the pain away
then i would make
a thousand cuts
and let it flow
till there was no more
but what would that do
except
leave me as empty
as the pain

if i could cry
the sadness away
then i would cry enough
to fill the salty ocean
with my bitter tears
but there's only so many
tears
that can be cried
before they fall
dry; invisible
while the sadness
continually grows
another
useless
release

if i could explain
the torment away
then i would speak of it
as freely as
it fills me
but how could i
put words to something
only felt
and manifested
in confusion
to speak of such
madness
would surely damage
another's thin veil
of sanity
i cannot

so i will keep silent
and hidden
far away
spinning in circles
where the scenery
never changes
and the laughter of
the demon jester
never ceases

"bleed the pain away"
how succinctly that expresses it..if only it was so easy to be over the pain of love

bw-these were old feelings that i only now put into words. things have been much better. thanks you so much for commenting and the hug.  
sea-my heart has already begun to heal. thank you for your kind reply.
tess-actually this is probably the first one that wasn't necessarily about love. although it may have played a small roll. thanks to you also for your comment.

I love this danni...it really hit home for me. Although dark and sad...it was still beautiful and prefectly expressive of those feelings. Excellent

sad...painful...but beuatifully written...
