a spiral

By Christa S

Pain is many things that are seen but pain

is also underneath 

Light may be seen on the outside but inside

is the dark side 

The dark side may not be all bad it could be

all the memories that are sad 

The pain that is hiden from the mortal eye

all the things that make you cry 

You may struggle to stand, to get up,

you feel like you have had enough 

You feel the bricks of the wall you hit

you think that this is it 

Then you hear a voice a sound

a meek whine drowned 

You look back at the one you left

and the mess you made 

You say I might have left my self

but for them I should have stayed 

I should have been strong,

I should not have strayed  

I should have patched up the boat before it sank

I loved them, I still do

Its not too late for me to 

I will come back 

I will survive 

I will save 

A life
