Pain

It speaks in shadows on the wall
It travels through fogs and cold night
A fog that blurs everything once bright
And leaves only faded pictures to hold

It is the quiet, fraying thread of promises left behind
The road that suddenly takes crook turns
A sudden sharp echoes that bites its own
Hurt that bleeds within

Yet in the hollow where it dwells
A light remains, a stubborn one
For nothing teaches us to heal
Like the winter of our pain
