I’m the paper cut you get at work
The break that’s in your arm
I’m the stealthy stalking killer
Intent on doing you harm
I’m the roof that’s falling in on you
Amidst the driving rain
You know exactly who I am
You know me
I am pain

I’m the lies of the lovers
That you’ve ever been told
I’m the long sleepless nights
Of isolation and cold
I’m the thoughts that always haunt you
Until you’ve gone insane
Don’t you try to walk away
You know me
I am pain

I’m the screams of the baby
Calling for his mother
I’m the fly on the face
Of your dead rotting brother
I’m the scars of your soul
Which have left such a stain
I will never leave you
You know me
I am pain

Regret not that which you have done,
Rather that which you haven't

I'm glad you all liked it, this was yet another bunch of words that kept my up one night until I put pen to paper, thank you very much.

That was a cool poem.  Neat to explore what pain might say if it were able to speak.
