My Pain…

a poem by Rinu M Varghese

In pain my heart goes wild
and my mind tries
to make it mild.

A single thought of loosing you
brings reactions that
are no longer new.

I scream, I yell, I cry going mad
then I calm down and sit
depressed and sad.

As I count hours into the next day
I pray that you don’t go
from me, too far away.

Leaving me alone in threatening silence, my love
to wait for the salvation I want
to come from high above.
