Our Pain

By Auden •
I can't let your pain hurt me,
I can't let your emotions drown me,
I can't live like this, hurting from you,
I can't live with sadness washing over you.
It's all from you, but all my choice,
So in its own way, it's all from me.
Waiting for a time to hurt, to kill.
No ones choice, but forever tainting us.
