Distress Poem by Nick Kler

Deep in my thoughts,
I forgave everyone
Without ever thinking thru
of its consequence

Now, I sit here
Hurting and all alone
There is no one left
To point my finger at

There is no one left to blame
So, I often hurt myself
Just to release the pain

Though, it is incomprehensible
I do it for fun
I burn my insides
For the moments that are gone
Painting pictures of a storm
that wrecked our home

It was a storm
that wrecked our home
