True pain

This pain is real
This pain is true
And can only be caused by you


My eyes burn
These tears fall
Like me they miss the hand to wipe them away


This darkness heals
This blackness calms
Neither can erase this sadness


The pain thrives
But my love survives
Memories of you haunt me in my mind


This silence is screaming
This darkness becomes blinding
The reality of what I need and want blurs


My shouts are silent
Your ears deaf
And my pain numb


I let you kill me
yet I've never been so alive
In my weakness I still need you


You make my darkness light
You make this pain feel alright
You take away all the bad


So I'll take you back
And shove you away
Loving you is worth the pain
