Affliction Woe


Affliction Woe
By: Adam M. Snow

I am alone again, thinking now of a rose that bleeds,
I am suffering with this pain that grows like weeds.
There's something going on inside my head,
it's making me insane calling out, “Affliction woe.”
The voices echoes “Let it show.”

What does this mean, “Affliction woe?”
I ask myself, “What does it want me to show?”
I'm alone in this room so I thought,
when I notice something in a mirror I long fought.
“Affliction woe” he said as the voices echoes
yet again, “Let it show.”

”Let what show?” I ask. The voices replied,
“Affliction woe, let it show.”
Oh my agony how my heart aches; my body's numb;
is this truly what I've become?
I hear it yet again, voices whispering,
“Affliction woe, let it show.”

What does it want from me?
For I know not what the curse may be.
Affliction woe it calls out;
what is this all about?

Is this but a curse of my misery?
To me this is all a mystery.
“Affliction woe” the voices cries,
“Let it show.”
“Let what show!?” I screamed out.
The voices replied,
“Affliction woe, let it show.”

I'm staring out a frost covered window,
with the voices crying out, “Affliction woe.”
How long must I go through this?
Quoth the voices, “Let it show.”

The night is now dreary and cold like ice;
my pain lingers on not once but twice.
Am I truly alone in this room so dark and dreary?
Who am I now? Is I now weary.
”Affliction woe” it echoes yet again, “Let it show.”

Is it my pain that it want me to show?
Is that what they meant by affliction woe?
Quoth the voices, “Let it show.”

It was this pain that caused my heart to ache,
my body to be numb
I thought my end would surly come.
I now know, for I to be free from this pain
called affliction woe,
I should always let it show.

Tears run down my cheek, I finally let it show;
I was once lost long time ago.
I thank the voices for opening my heart,
nevermore well I fall apart.

My heart does not ache; my body's no longer numb,
no fear of affliction woe left to come.
I hear the voices echoing let it show, no more.
The room's no longer dark, I can now see,
that this is truly, truly for the best of me.
