I saw a picture of you
and colored it black
A darker side of pain
strapped to my back
A weight that brought
me down for far too long
It became too familiar
like a line from a song
A burden I somehow
managed to gain
Too many years living
with a growing pain
A day without
my friend sorrow
was like a week
without a tomorrow
A life with
no way out
This I no
longer doubt
