Analysis of Unleashed Pain



Without purpose,
Unleashed pain,
Holding happiness hostage,
To tame empathy's strain,
Missed chance,
Exhausted thought,
Hearts pumping,
 Breath is short,
 Allowing time,
To slip by,
A spark within a touch,
A tear to cry,
A trip into a fall,
A flower against the wall,
Alone but watched,
Crowded but unseen,
Words with and without,
Something to mean,
Without purpose,
Unleashed pain,
Holding happiness hostage,
To tame empathy's strain...............BAD-Mc..<3
