Several Shades Of Pain

I wonder,

if pain has any color, when it comes,

covering our hearts.


Does the red still shows,

or does it change?


Perhaps, I wonder,

while it might not have a color of its own,

It has, the power,

to make the existing color darker.


So maybe my heart becomes a darker red,

when the pain comes.

And my eyes must become darker,

when I feel it.


My skin must too then,

for I feel it everywhere.

Maybe from the inside it does,

and so do my cells,

and my blood.


Everything must get darker,

when it hurts,

I think.
