Pain is an old friend
Sometimes I think, my only friend
It never leaves me
It is my constant companion
My faithful lover
I'm never alone
My pain is always with me
It embraces me with passion
It covers me like a warm blanket
It's there when I go to bed
It's the first thing that greets me
when I awaken
I'm a vessel and my pain fills me
Like a hot liquid
And then becomes my tears
The ones I shed when no one is around
to see them
They burn to the touch
My pain completes me
