SUFFERING

Suffering 

clings to your heart like black tar 

suffocating your arteries 

squeezing the oxygen from your lungs 

making you feel intoxicatingly sick 

even when your eyes are pure 

It is stitched into the fabric of your days 

an uninvited guest that lingers in every shadow 

creeping up behind every smile 

twisting itself into every choice you make 

No matter where you go 

what city streets you walk 

what warm beds you sleep in 

it follows 

patient and persistent 

its weight pressing against your chest 

its whispers threading through your thoughts 

You can fight it 

try to outrun it 

drown it in distractions or pleasures 

but it will find you 

always 

as suffering 

is simply a natural part of life 

So find someone 

or something 

worth enduring the gnawing ache for 

a heart to protect 

a dream to chase 

a life to save 

an animal to raise 

a simple goal 

a healthy escape 

a purpose 

that makes the endless ache bearable 

Without purpose 

suffering is an empty infinite 

a never-ending nightmare 

a hopeless dystopia 

a hollow echo of life 

gone to waste 

trying to defeat 

an invincible enemy
