Immortal Pain

The pain I feel is everywhere
It burns in my soul
It itches on my skin
It makes my tears sting
It rakes my emotions
It screams in my mind
It is the tattoo needle on my heart
It is deep beneath my skin
It is my broken heart
It is etched into my very being
It is the blood that courses my veins
It is the air that I breathe
It is the black of night
It is the howl of the wind
It is the screech of the bat
It is in death and in life
It is the poetry that fuels me
The pain that I feel is everywhere
