Soul Ache

A shoulder
To cry on
An arm
Around me

Uphill
Downhill
A cloth
For the bleeding

A patch
On the wound
Of my
Disemboweled Soul

These are just
Some things
That come
To mind
When I look
At you

The need
Is becoming
Higher
More acute
The pain
Increasingly sharper
As if you
Again and again
Scratch open
The crust
That should be healing

Living with
A man
With autism
There are no
Words
To describe it
These words are
Only clichés
Or things
I so need
With the life
Together with you

But when I
Could describe it
Could this be

Soul ache
