Title: Over again

Poem: There are times when I think I'm ok
that the bad feelings will stay away
but then it happens all over again
and I face the return of the awful pain.

I look at the past and remember those years
the days and weeks all filled with tears
Oh how on those days I wished to die
away from this life I could rise and fly

I'm told you have to try again and again
but they don't feel the extent of my pain
they try to help but don't know how
but I need the help and I need it now.

Years go by and yet I'm still here
is my release date nowhere near?
Will this pain ever completely go?
I guess that answer is always no....
