Sunrise to sunset
you are there
attacking my thoughts
distracting my attention
your presence reviled
and yet a level of comfort
familiarity and acceptance is there
though unwanted
I have no choice
forced association
mandated acceptance
resigned acquiescence
you are my
tormentor
guide
companion
my ever present friend
.........pain

Awww. this was wonderful..
Though it was a sad read too,
you really took us into your "eveyday" life
almost..
I hope that one day the pain dulls enough
that you can live one day without it.. Or seemingly so.
Thank you for sharing.. Best of luck..

I can understand the depth of the poem, maybe not to the depth that you know it. I am sorry you hurt so much and all the time. the shape looks like a jar with a lid. you did a good job on this, though the subject is sad. Remember you are in my prayers always.
