Pain
by Tammy Hendrix


From the bowels is where I cry. An ambitionless soul is who am I.
Having no aim, no goal to ponder nor joy in life or dreams to wonder.
From the depths of here I cannot stray.
Carry me now is the plea I pray.
I am of no value, my worth is void, empty inside desires destroyed.

It invades my peace, my minds awry, even my
hand has lost its stride.
I force the words through darkened clouds to express what is forbidden to speak aloud.
Focus takes force, I struggle to show and put forth offerings of what I know.

See me now, by this I teach how inherent truth do lies impeach. Forever I carry what's willed to me.
From generation to generation the lies the key.
Yet the key to what is the question at hand.
Perhaps to the disarray of our mental waste land.

Why was it then?
Why is it this way now?
My souls endless torture is what lies in the bowels.
So unify me, awing, blinding, bright light.
You've carried me before through a life defining fight.

I beseech your pervading warmth, your power once more, for my strength is failing me, fighting the demons that roar.
AMEN

Pain...
Pain is all that you speak, freedom into the light is so ner that I can taste it for you.

Continue to write and re-read your own words and then write some more.

Thank you LMJ
This piece was written long ago when pain was all I felt. I look back from time to time and see how much I was really hurting at that time. I have grown closer to the light. I am still a student of course. Loving my new life lessons and learning process. Thank you for your opinions. They are always welcome. I am not educated in the ways of an appropriate writing process. Tammy
