Pain Poem by Phil Panebianco

I can feel your sorrow
from now until tomorrow
your apologies cannot save you now
words are nothing but excuses
lies spread like diseases
I can feel your anger
your mind filled with danger
You've created your own virus
but it poisons all of us
You have felt the agony of defeat
the world you cannot beat
Everyone is against you
no matter what you say or do
Lost in a wild city
as you beg for some pity
laughed at and held back
your life thrown off track
longing for a second chance
one last dance
you would sell your soul to the devil
just to stop these feelings of evil
you have gone insane
from these years of pain
longing to be home again.
