On Paying The Price

by CANCER - Not entered

The pain of which you speak ..
That shall never be yours
No more?
I am steeped in it,
Like a blanket of thorns
Piercing my spirit,
My heart torn apart.
I thought I wanted to feel something,
And that it would be ecstasy.
All to brief that, then
This artic ache of longing
Just as before,
State of shock setting in..
Stupefied ..
I'm feeling, all right,
A tumble of sensations
I can't wait to show the door,
But they're taking their own sweet time
Getting out of here.
Please, no more!
