I feel a dreadful pulling,
A yearning,
But I resist that pull,
Only because it lead to you,
Your pain.
New pain.
My pain is enough,
without yours.
Yours is a deep throbbing,
Ache.
Slowly breaking you down,
And pulling me after you.
Your pull is so strong,
I may not resist it
Any longer.
I am beginning to ache,
Deep and throbbing,
Bringing me down towards you,
Your pain draws me in,
But my pain pushes you away,

Far Away.
