Window PAIN


I had yearned for so long

I had waited for too long

I died inside for too long

no love no compaasion

no warm embrace

not even a tender touch

quiet nights

desperate mornings

I couldnt stand it any longer

I couldnt take it any longer

I WAS PISSED!

the anger raged inside

like

a volcano

dying

to erupt

the hot lava waves crashing

against the walls

of my heart

 And yet

quietly still

I remained

never to

let out a tear

 a whimper

not  once

not one bit

of the

emotion

you deprived me of

I allowed you

inadvertantly

but still

subconciously

allowed you

to make

me

feel

lifeless

and lifeless 

I became

in a pool of blood

on a sidewalk

fallen

from

a

window pane
