Two Bodies in Pain
by David GarnerTwo bodies in Pain.
They find each other.
They bind; they're bound.
They think it's Love.
This feels so good.
Two bodies in Pain.
They fall in Pain.
Two bodies in Pain.
They cry in bed.
They need; they're nudged.
They want true Love.
This must be Love.
Two bodies in Pain.
They fall in Pain.
Two bodies in Pain.
They merge their bodies.
They drink; they're drunk.
They fight, not Love.
This burden big.
Two bodies in Pain.
They fall in Pain.
Two bodies in Pain.
They hide so much.
They talk; don't listen.
They crave that touch.
This shouting match.
Two bodies in Pain.
They fall in Pain.
Two bodies Pain.
They fall in Pain.
They fall; they fall.
They fall in Pain.
This must be Pain.
Two bodies in Pain.
They fall in Pain.

| Posted by Kathleen Wilson on 04/01/08 at 04:38 PM A devastating little poem, very true to life, and the "fall" into "pain" instead of "love" is vivid, the intensity and lament is strong. The "they talk, don't listen" is the key line I think... and to understand it is the key that unlocks this bind. The hidden key. |
