Pain of love


There’s a darkness

A heavy load in the heart

The weight of one breath

Is unwieldy.

We’ve grown tired.

Weary of breathing,

Exhausted by tears

That won’t fall.

How did you carry it?

All the years with your friends

You knew.

You knew your heart would break.

The pain of the nails truly harrowing,

But the pain of love–

The pain of good-bye

Is all.
