Pain

By Ashwin E

Why do you keep it slow

When all words are low

Besides it's time to talk

No secrets here to lock.

Make a moment to blow

Safe and simple, below

Behind the heads, they woke

Above their heads, they mock.

I knew it's hard to be with

Thousand knifes stabbed on your back

I knew it's hard to be with

Million thoughts that kill you.

Am I coward to live with

Same torture that was too deep

Too painful, unbearable to deal with

But slowly it took over and I let it creep.
