Tom Cruise
The pain will never go away;
The wound will never heal
The evil that was done to you
Is now your eyes, your heart
The black will never turn to gray;
The blood will not congeal
The violence is never through;
The past does not depart
Time will merely make you whole,
Consuming what you are:
Part sufferer, part comforter,
Part victim, part new song;
Part mother of an angry soul,
Part child of despair,
Part witness and part conqueror
Of all that did you wrong.

Consuming what you are:
