Pain

Pain, comes in your head
like a black thundercloud,
flashes like a bright red lightning
in your mind's eye.
Pain, enclose your heart
with a fist of steel,
press it, until there is nothing left
as a few red crumbs.
Pain, eat your soul away,
with its whole stability,
first slowly, and then
fast as a brush fire.
Pain, it will be with you forever,
it makes no different, if you fight against it.
Sometimes, it is gone away, but
you are not alone for a long time.
The pain will come back again,
with it's full power and with it's whole suffering!
