“When you wish to suffer
But you can’t suffer
Yet you suffer
For suffering eludes
You long for it
Yet you can’t have it
As if cursed
You ask for it
You look for it
In joy
In sadness
In laughter
In cries
From days
To night
From darkness
To light
You scream
You glean
You seethe
Yet breathe
While suffering continues
To suffocate, you
It haunts you
Through the dreams
And nightmares
It tempts you
Through the pain
And fears
It kills you
Through those smiles
It brings you back to life
Through those tears
Falling in its abyss
You resist, protest
You surrender, hesitate
You plead guilty
You claim innocence
Yet in the end
Nothing matters
But did you suffer
Did you suffer enough
To find solace
In suffering
Alas…”
