Life Is Pain

Life Is Pain

Life is pain

Love is life

Equal measures

Of joy and strife.

 

Time is eternal

Satan rules

Many people

Are jaded fools.

 

Touched by heartache

Pain and anguish

Written in betrayal’s

Hurtful language.

 

Learned response

 From being mistreated

Issued pain

When joy was needed.

 

Now no trust

No “Golden Rule”

Its do them first

Before they do you.

 

Anger lingers

Love is gone

What once was right

Replaced by wrong.

 

Light once shined

Darkness grows.

Depressions tide

It ebbs and flows.

 

Shackles fastened

Cuffs and chains

One named Sadness

The other, Pain.

 

Life’s the sentence

The world, my cell

Imprisoned in

This living hell.

 

These bonds won’t break

Please set me free?!

I fear I’ll never

Find the key.

This is just what happens when you are betrayed by someone you love.

Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
