There is a mutual understanding
Between two people in pain.
A silent agony lingers
Behind each interaction.

Companionship is only
Distraction. No remedy exists.
Only time can heal
Wounds dealt to the soul.

True beauty is constructed
Out of the ruins of
Hasty desicions and
Long forgotten injuries.

Together in pain
Together we heal.
To know and to be known
Is all that we seek.
