"So can you please tell me why you feel like this?", she asked
"It's when-"
"You know how-"
"Have you ever just-"
...nothing

how do you explain the pain you don't understand?
when all you want to do is make it stop
How do you stop the pain that just creeps up on you?
How do you talk about the pain that comes back to **** you when spoken about?
how do you explain the unexplainable?

"You ever have those days where-"
"Do you ever feel like-"
"Or maybe ever just-"
... forget it

it's like maybe the aching doesn't exist to anyone if it isn't said aloud
the pain doesn't come back for more when its left alone
but for the love of everything good,
i wish it'd stop coming back to me
