Name That Tune

Name That Tune

Breathing deep to find relief

Unaware of the stealthy grief

Tangled thoughts remain

It’s a constant but dull pain

 

Nothing relives the ache

Though you pray “For God’s sake”

Something you can’t even explain

But it’s a constant and dull pain

 

At times you forget it’s there

Then comes the pain and despair

Finally it dawns on your brain

It’s a constant yet dull pain

 

Those around you try but fail

Explanations could never avail

Though you tell it like a songs refrain

Of this constant yet dull pain

 

Only those who recognize the tune

Know the words and melody soon

The beat and harmonies are plain

It’s a constant but dull pain
