PAin


darkness sawollows

My mind blank

can't get the images out

let the pain escape

the blood flows

the scars from

I do it again

let the pain escape

I count the calories

I watch the vomit

fill the toilet

let the pain escape

I take the pills

I see the light

but there is still pain

The light is gone

the room is filled

there's a sterile aroma

but the pain is still here

The Pain will never escape

it will always linger

always trying to find the light

'but the light turns it's self off

what can you do

when the pain you feel

will never go away

the pain is real

the pain can't rid your body

Until you force the pain out

so hello light

please stay on

this pain needs to go

an i want to join

the light
