Dectina Refrain

  • Ten lines;
  • Syllabic: 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10;
  • The tenth line is comprised of the first four lines all together, as one stand alone line in quotation marks. (apparently the quotation marks are optional.)

Pain

Pain
Empty
Unending
For good reason
Deep down in the soul
Feelings so real they hurt
Shadowing the hope of peace
Happening without my consent
Like heat and darkness pressing down hard
Pain empty unending for good reason

  1. Feelings are very real, and pain is the hardest, I totally understand this (quite similar to my own that I will post today) – “Shadowing the hope of peace” – powerful, thank you for delving deep – kindest Suzanne ….

  2. I like how you made each line standalone.

    “Feelings so real they hurt”

    Emotional and mental wellbeing are definitely linked with physical health. I really like how this line incorporates the intangible element of feelings, yet they are.
