I looked into the eyes of the devil
as he stared back at me.
Smiling at the torture he was devising,
I told him look closer
I have already seen hell,
lived through that darkness,
Slept in the same bed with her.

I look into your eyes
and see the same pain
I've been through.
He stopped,
grin faded
stood up
and said
since the beginning
no amount of physical pain
Prepared me for her...
I welcome loneliness to come sit by me
it's the only thing that has left me yet.
