Endless Throb

Poem about a child’s headache in family conflicts

***Note: The periods are indications of unhappiness. The 1st stanza and the last 2 lines purposely have no periods as it’s an indication of hope.***

Sunny and bright
The world at its height
The mightiest child
And their wildest wild

Not long after.
Conflicts drift faster.
Wounds seep deeper.
Childhood no longer.

Rainy and stormy.
Lonely and teary.
This endless fiery.
Feeds the hopeless agony.

Yelling. Feuding.
Leaving. Drifting.
Tears endlessly dropping.
For this child’s aching.

Stop. Stop. Drip. Drop.
Endless heart throb.
Please let light walk
Through this agonizing spot
