Poetry Are You Still in Pain?

[Venom Adhamm]

It's over.

Don't say it, I know it's over
The stone that tipped the scale
The flowers that grew far too frail
All together now, all in the past now
All drowned out by the rain
Are you still in pain?

We have dreams when we're younger
All the places we'd like to go
The people we want to get close to
The once-in-a-lifetime experiences we'd like to have
But the clock ticks on at a steady pace
It doesn't care if you're there or late
Your chance is taken by the thunder
And the clouds hide you from summer's rays
Are you still in pain?

Tracing along the faded scars
Sometimes I can feel the blade's phantom
Still tearing across my skin as I try to feel
Everything washes off in the end
It all drips down into the drain
Are you still in pain?

I dreamt of a girl once
Who I could wake up beside
Her loving smile, her caring eyes
And she'd wrap her warm arms around me
Hold me close for as long as she could
Press my nose into her short mess of hair
I thought one day she'd be real

But she never came
Are you still in pain?
