The hurting

The leaving hurts.
It aches
And it burns
And it tears
Through my soul
Leaving behind
Gaping holes
Which my very being
And soul
Will flow.
The leaving
May hurt
But the staying
Could kill.
The waiting
was torture
and praying
so hopeless.
I wish I could say
that it all had a purpose
but in the end, it seems,
it is only painful.
