    Pain As White As Snow

    A Poem I wrote about suffering from chronic pain

    Pain As White As Snow

    You sit inside

    And stir your cocoa,

    I scream forever at your wall

    As bits of chipped forgiveness

    Fall down.

    Oh where are you

    Solemn one

    Without the book of guilt

    Constantly recited

    I need your influence

    Do not leave me here stained

    Among the naked

    Among the lost.

    How can you watch me

    Scratch my fingernails in desperation

    While you read lustful rags

    On our sofa

    How can you

    Breathe sweet and clean

    While I

    Suffocate on

    Leftover wet towels

    and maybe some Tramadol
