Pain Poem by Tears From A Soldiers Eyes

It hurts so much, Doc…
Please… make it stop.

A fire in my chest,
A weight I cannot lift.
Maybe if I rest,
It will fade…

But what is this feeling?
It bends me to my knees,
Shakes me from the inside,
Makes my eyes overflow.

My throat is dry,
My heart too full,
Doc… please… some water,
Some relief from this ache.

Tell me… what is this?
No… I don't want to sit.
No… you can't be serious.

I can't believe what I'm hearing,
Couldn't you have warned me?
Couldn't someone have told me
How it feels
To have a broken heart?
