No Pain

No Pain

A sore throat,
A hamstring strain,
A broken nose,
I feel no pain,

An ear infection,
An ankle sprain,
A jammed finger,
I feel no pain,

A stiff back,
A sunburnt face,
A violent cough,
I feel no pain,

My body aches,
Morning, noon and night,
A doctor tells me I’m sick,
I feel no pain,

I catch you with another man,
Screaming his name,
A dagger inserted in my chest,
I feel numb,

A knot forms in my stomach,
I feel betrayed,
The pounding of my heart,
As it shatters and breaks,

The love I hold for you,
Carries with it more weight,
Than every ache and illness,
I now feel pain,

I feel it in my stomach,
I feel it in my chest,
I feel it in my throat,
With every last breath,

The pain runs sharp,
The pain runs deep,
As you made the cut,
And let me bleed.
