this suffering is mine to keep
it is mine to deal with
you have no right to it
this suffering is mine to keep
a treasure of broken pieces
for me to look with a sigh
you won’t recognise it anymore
this suffering is mine to keep
the dying is to remember
what we cannot live without
it really has no one else
this suffering is mine to keep
in the life that I have, own
this suffering is not mine to keep
