Pain Poem by Matt Kephart

trapped in the dark
cut off from everything
so alone in this world
and the world is nothing but pain
how do we keep from going insane
i cant get out
i cant get free
without light i can not see
blood turns to ice in my veins
the heat of life stolen away
but i can still feel
i feel every blade, every shard of ice
every blow, every time im hurt
nothing is worth going on
i hate the pain, hate being alone
there's nothing left but the dark
the darkness in my heart
without them there's nothing
i am nothing
i need them more than life itself
otherwise i drown in the icy blood
the blood my heart bleeds


I know it doesn't rhyme. It's not meant to. It's meant to invoke a strong feeling.
