The Pain I Would Feel

The pain overwhelms me,
as the burning tears fall from my eyes.
And the love for you-
screams through me as my heart dies.
Others are so selfish and stubborn,
and they care not of my life with you.
They would take me from your grasp-
and torture my soul as if no one knew.
I hate the world around me,
and the suffering caused my want,
and yet I love to suffer-
by loving something I should not.
Just because of their greed,
they would take me away from here.
I would have to live without you-
then my lonely pain would be clear.
As I would learn to live in the darkness,
I would wait and slowly die-
just because of someone else.
I would never say goodbye.

(written 2/23/06- my parents had split up, my father was trying to get custody of my brother and I and I was worried he would take me from my soul mate, who I was secretly dating at the moment because he was "too old for me" at the time...everything worked out OK)
