Restart my pain

I can't escape your eyes when they play that song

There is power there, it sends fear down my spine

Memories live there, I don't want details

I just need time

Healing wounds is seldom speedy

Along comes another and yet I lean to you

Glutton for punishment? Shall we re-visit this crime

What a danger to be within your range

I wonder if you'd shoot...

Ceasefire 

Do you dream of me at all?

Aren't we beyond this point?

Where is my sweet recovery?

When will my pain restart?

Along comes another and so we begin again...

A very well written piece that I find myself relating almost exactly. Similar questions I ask myself as I try to seek the answers. I think you made an excellent choice with the title and the flow to this poem goes very well. Such powerful emotions that speak volumes, thank you for sharing. --Broken Soul

Well written, I love the imagery, especially with the questions near the end.

Another sweet poem. Angst is paralyzing. Everything will be good.

Emotions are powerful things, and are unfortunately not ruled by reason. Even when we see the disconnect, we still try for it. This is a very well done example of that, and a very enjoyable read.

I was feeling this same way a few years back, we got back together to start over..... then it happened again. So now I have tucked my heart away, from the pain. It hurts to much.

I read Jeff's review and think if you change the word ' is ' to ' are' it might sound more cohesive " Healing wounds are seldom speedy". Because in reality the pain is very hard to get through.

Yet it was a heart wrenching poem, but great to read.

seriously???......been walking in my head lately???--the perfect emotions you have here of that love that we know is not good for us but has become the definition. great write.

I like this! It had me drawn it, but then it ended too soon. It feels like there is more of it still out there somewhere.

Also, I would find a different way to say, "Healing wounds is seldom speedy" with the word speedy being the word that seems a bit out of place.

As always though, just my opinion.
