The endless stream of pain

 

Serrated with the pain of survival,

a man cuts a tree,

Resin and sap oozing from the

cut on the tree’s bark,--

coagulated tears,

It’s a tiny stream of pain

that started in a human heart

and changed to the tree’s tears,

The stream of pain proceeds further,

It now becomes

the sad words of a poet

on the paper made of tree’s flesh,

The sad verse then chimes

with the inaudible whisper of pain

in some reader’s heart.
