Tragedy
A most unbearable and inevitable affliction
A most unpredictable assailant
A most infuriating adversary
A maker of the broken hearted
A master of limitless pain
A true face of the Devil
Too many tears to count
Ragged breaths in a raw throat
Anger and anguish
God's absence
Emboldened recklessness
Disbelief of a disbeliever
Yearning for a place the pain can never reach you
A layer of thickened skin
A layer of stacked brick
A layer of varnish on a flimsy shield
---
But a motivator for change
But a reason for appreciation
But a promise for a better tomorrow
