I've known pain..
Digging, scratching, scraping pain.
Splitting my soul in two,
like a knife thrust into my chest
A pain washed in tears gone dry
And sprinkled in pieces of dreams
Yes, Ive known that pain...
I've known loss...
Empty, gaping, expansive loss.
Turning beautiful memories
Into a painful black hole
Standing by in awe...
As this wrekingball of life
Destructs what my heart has built
Yes, I've known that loss too...
I've known hate
Writhing, seething, burning hate.
The sight of nails digging into pillows,
Wishing it were human flesh...The growing lust for blood and discontent
As thoughts of torture fill your mind
Yes, I've known hate as well...
I've known Love...
Glorious, total, unconditional love.
The serenity of silence
And an unselfish state of mind...
That thing that makes pain, loss and hate
All seem worthwhile
Yes, Ive known Love
