Trial by Pain

Just read, I guess.

In this light with the biggest smile

surrounded by laughter and smirks

this is all false, an illusion of my trial

my life is a bully assembled by jerks

the light can’t hold back the shadows

always attacking, I can feel the bulb busting

when the light breaks pain and sadness flows

this happiness is not worth lusting

as the light dims my smile fades

how I really feel begins to show

my life has been a tilting field of blockades

this shows as the darkness begins to grow

but I stand up and walk with the pain

all from my past, good thing I like the rain

sad poetry
