The pain is flaring again,
Lighting up like a cigar
Ready to start a bonfire.

The pain is flaring again,
The hopeless, empty flare
That nothing is on the horizon.

The pain is flaring again,
I'm afraid to wake up with you gone,
Off to meet someone else.

The pain is flaring again,
And I don't want to be alone.
I want to be your only one.

The pain is flaring again,
The fear has turned me inside out.
I'm more scared than I want to show.

The pain is flaring again,
And there's nothing I can do about it.
I'm hoping to channel more of what I'm going through into writing. It's sort of a therapy, something more healthy than what I've been doing so far.

This might sound a bit morbid or dark, but... To me pain reminds me that I am alive. That I can still feel, and that there just might be something worth all this. It burns and cuts and stings and throbs but with each wound created a chance to heal is also made. And where one wound has healed, it leaves a place for something stronger. Scarred? Possibly. But stronger nontheless.
