This is that thing

that digs inside

and makes it's home

inside your soul

Tearing yourself apart

thinking and wondering

what it all means

where it leads

Wanting answers

to fall in your lap

sitting and waiting

for the answers

Time ticks through

the contents of your mind

washes away the pain

of things done

The pain comes

in a torrent of waves

through your heart

and tears out what's left
