ache

i ache today

from the center of my being

i try to look away

but the ache remains

i don't want to be alone

love is such a mystery

she wounds

she heals

deep in a cave

i want to hide

heavy is my chest

where is the air

hear me

beautiful One

come to my aid

do not let this depair

grip too tight

humble me

restore hope

or live with pain

if i must
