My Pain Poem

My Pain

She holds him close, smiling with happiness, and whispers, “I love you.” My heart aches and I suffer a pain that I cannot ignore. I’d rather be burned by fire, cut by a knife, or feel some other physical pain, but instead this emotion causes a pain greater than anything physical and I cannot bare it! I wake to find her close by my side. She sees my tears and wipes them away. “Never again my dear, never again will it happen.”
