Wretched worry

They say love and hate are intertwined.

My heart aches.

Pierced by a thousand needles

Like salt filled paper cuts engulfed in acid

Worry, anguish and pain

Feelings of regret

Maybe even remorse.

They say people only feel regret when one is sick

or assumed to be.

But I feel the sadness of seas

And as I lay here

my eyes bloodshot with worry, my head thrashing to the beat of pain

Every second growing,

Nothing can replace the beating of my heart.

Its broken. Torn, ripped apart

like an ink note in the rain.

Collapse. Worry,

The silence of the night,

Cursing unfairness, her sorrowful deep damnation!

Maybe its an exaggeration,

A heightened parabolic claim.

But I fear nonetheless,

Willfully.
