The Internal Pain Poem by Gugu BlaqRoze Thokoza

The internal pain

Amidst all the passion,
the explosive emotion,
the sad enthusiasm,
I find myself releasing,
a wordless,
yet sad sound expressing my grief....
exposing the deplorable effect,
that the toll,
of the capacity of growth, that is life,
has taken on me....
The sound expresses my pain,
I shed tears...
yet I see nothing falling,
I See nothing dropping,
from the organ of my body,
that I use for seeing....
My emotions lack feeling...
My heart...
The organ of my body,
that decides,
that my red blood should circulate,
is dismantled into two equal parts,
Both these two pieces,
of my unforgiving heart drip...
They drip with the red liquid,
that flows through my veins and arteries,
It hurts...
Pains my soul....
The invincible part of my being,
I'm overwhelmed with Sadness,
Overflowing with pain,
Isolated in my own heart,
Trapped in my own world,
I never cry,
I don't wanna die,
Maybe I do wanna cry,
and I may wanna die,
let my heart stop,
and let the continuous beat it makes,
no longer exist.....
