Poetic Thoughts - The Residue of Pain - by C.W. Pruitt II

Poetic Thoughts header

The Residue of Pain

Below are 2 poems I wrote on August 14, 2012. They are on the aftereffects of pain which may be subject to transmutation into sorrow.

1

after the requisite suffering
the pain eases
and the darkness creeps out
soon sun is overhead
and beams brightly its message
ECSTATIC LOVE
bliss and sorrow remain

2

when pain
turns to sorrow
and for grief
you must borrow
another phrase
of lamentation
then ablaze
with contemplation
when pain
turns to sorrow
