Pain

Fire. it burns.
Fever. it taunts.
Fear. it lingers.

Burning. it hurts.
Bearing. it must
Battle. it endures.

Hurtful. it steals.
Hopeful. it fools.
Hateful. it protects.

Stolen. it closes.
Scared. it runs.
Sordid. it sulks.

Closed. it hides.
Conflicted. it fights.
Careful. it learns.

Hidden. it tries.
Holden. it grips.
Hostage. it threatens.

Try. it fails.
Tormented. it blames.
Terrified. it kills.

Failure. it cries.
Facade. it stands.
Fatigue. it falls.

Cry. it robs.
Cold. it shivers.
Clam. it sweats.

Robbed. it pleads.
Rain. it falls.
Rescue. it wants.

Please. it denies.
Past. it heals.
Poor. it teaches.

Denial. it fires.
Death. it takes.
Dust. it chokes.
