If only pain were as brief as a tear…
Born, lived, and lost in a single, sorrowful sigh.
No echoes of despair, no lingering fear,
Just a flash of hurt, then nothing to repair.
Like dew…
it would glisten, fall, and fade
Leaving no stain, no scar, no memories made.
No haunting shadows, no binding fears,
Just a moment's sorrow, and nothing left through the years.
But pain lingers, a persistent, unwelcome guest
Refusing to leave, refusing to rest.
It clings to the heart, a heavy, crushing weight,
A constant reminder of life's fragile, fractured state.
