What is pain; it is a feeling Not able to be defined with words I've lived; therefore I've felt pain Pain is ever changing and multiplies Just as you think you know it To your surprise, it can get worse A child of nine, I felt my mother's pain My sister died; so died a part My mother's heart; her soul I heard her cry; a cry of despair Agonizing pain, but not the worst As an adult I felt pain again Like a ghost or demon it slipped in I watched my marriage fall apart My world crumbled into dust Nothing was certain any more Who was I; pain ruled my heart But it was not the worst I'm older now, more patient More sober, reflective Understanding that I know nothing I've lived longer, seen more More satisfied with who I am What life is all about Into that self-satisified state Pain has come again Ripping through my heart Without anesthetic; without remorse Oh God this pain is the worst For words cannot communicate It is a feeling;not a word Crushed in its encircling coils Fear chasing fear inside Nothing remains but fear and pain I must be strong; stand firm Trapped in the name of love This pain is the great destroyer This pain will drive me insane This pain will remain.

I've never felt this type of pain, hope I never do. "Trapped in the name of love This pain is the great destroyer This pain will drive me insane This pain will remain." |

peppermint35 - my sister passed away also, very young, never reached the age of seven. I also know pain, too much in fact, and wonder "Does it ever end?" BC |
