A beautiful face cloaked in sorrow,
Words of suffering flowing from black stained lips.
Eyes that are tired of seeing reality
Cloud over with anguish and blood red tears.
No longer wishing to know how ruined love feels
You try to comfort yourself with dirty redemption and worthless needs,
Lamenting with soulless envy to become complete within your pain.
As agony runs like a river through your ethereal identity,
A shattered heart bleeds empathy for you.
A wounded soul yearns to give you solace,
Emerging from the darkness in which you threw her.
Relief trying to seep into your aching core,
Tender words are echoed to your soul.
Digging inside, I extract all of your pain,
Taking it upon myself so you don�t have to feel,
An agonizing existence should not be your burden.
And as swiftly as I come to steal the pain away,
I am tossed back to my sorrow
Leaving all securities with you.
I have always been there to soothe your aching heart
Because love was never supposed to hurt this bad.

�Gehenna�1997
