STRUGGLE TO ACCEPT


Insensibly refrain
this pain is always here.
Sometimes it lessens, I think,
building strength for a return.
Behind eye lens it floats a cloud,
darkening my hues from blue,
turning teeth-grit gray my view.

ingrain my being,
consumes control to feed
my focus, swallowing
experience from pleasure,
moistening my agony till
self image brush a knife

my canvass cuts
once colors bright
now bleeding gloom
and so without
this pain to live
refrain bemuse

look to change
refocus
view renew
I may through
clear eyes see
once again

and do the things
I have to do
as best I can
without concern
much time it takes
my face of pain

unmask expression
shine from light within
willingly may beam
