Pain

Pain

Let me resay that,

PAIN!

Pain from living.

~

To live is to hurt,

Small pains and

Large pains

Unavoidable.

~

Physical pain

From engagements in

Physical acts.

Bang your elbow

~

Oh that hurts,

But not like

A horse wreck,

A car wreck.

~

Bang your thumb

With a hammer,

Fall playing football.

If you play you are gona hurt.

!

Here’s the bitch,

If you don’t play

You gona hurt.

Just standing at work.

~

So you relax

Lay back

Get more out of shape

And hurt more.

~

Decide to work out

Oh My God!

Didn’t know you

Get so sore.

~

My advice, if you are

Going to hurt,

Hurt doing something

Instead of hurting for nothing.

~

Pain

Let me resay that,

PAIN!

Pain from living.

~

Emotional pain,

Disappointment,

Unrequitedly love,

And loss.

~

Hurts in a way

We all know

But sometimes

Cannot say.

~

Being betrayed by a lie,

Unkept promises,

Even good intention

Can rock your certainties.

~

Hurt as bad as

A horse wreck,

A car wreck,

Sometime so bad

~

Is the hurt that

We craw into it,

And hide.

So as not to get hurt again.

~

Here’s the bitch,

When you hide from hurt

The hurt is

All around you.

!

Hurt not left behind

Cannot heal.

But you can only

Leave it behind

~

By exposing yourself,

Like a wound to the sun,

To life

With all its risk.

~

Then the pain can go away!

My advice, if you are

Going to hurt,

Hurt living, not dying!

~
