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.

yes, please explain the title (forgive my ignorance at interpretation)

I like it. It sounds like alot of the poetry I read and I love the way that you distract the reader from the big picture in order to show them something bigger (that probably doesn't make sense). However, try to tone it down on the cliche'd lines. I do agree in using cliche's when there is no other way to say something, but almost the entire poem is made up of stuff that everyone puts in poems (ex... Black will never turn to gray, blood not congeal........ ) Just try to experiment with your wording. However, you probably shouldn't listen to me. I love your poem and am quite delusional at the moment. I probably didn't think through it at all. good luck. Keep writing. domokun

I love it! Very beautifully done. Love the way that it flows. But the title does not make sense. Please could you explain?
