jellyfish hearts

true pain

you haven't seen true pain
until you feel that chasm
where your heart should be
it is the chasm of loneliness

when you are left behind
alone
broken
depressed

it sucks the energy right out of you
tells you you are nothing
lets your fear take over your controllers
kills you deeply

true pain
is that
unexplainable ache
in your chest

it resides where your heart should be
and while unexplainable
we always know
why it's there

we know why it came
it takes
takes
takes

before you know it,
all you'll want to do
is sleep
