Pain for the Soulless

Risking everything I've ever tried for
by becoming some one you won't live with.
I've never worked so hard in my life.
Walking through trials that were not my own.
Fighting battles that did not indulge my opinion.
Laboring and sweating for the intangible.
Laboring and sweating to become tangible.
Waging war upon myself
to stay that way.

I wanted nothing more than for you to see.
See everything.
The light, the dark, the beauty in life.
The beauty in you.
To leave you a stronger person.
To help you cast yourself into some one
that you could appreciate being.
In my attempts to bring you to life
I ended that and brought breath to monstrosity.
The outlet that's been chosen
was chosen by you, and pain.
Pain is not for the soulless.

Now it is you who labors over yourself.
Sweating to become intangible;
waging war upon yourself,
bleeding,
to stay that way.
