My Pain

My Pain My pain is so intense just can’t describe how much it hurts the burning cutting deep the knife twisting turning pushing further inside The tears keep flowing a torrid river rolling faster slowly drowning me can’t escape this pain Stuck unable to move but must push forward carry on fighting to find a way to reach the top No matter how hard continue climbing no time to stop don’t give in THEY will not win My pain will never go until the day this battle is won got to stay strong one day my pain will fade

I understood you very well here. I like that. :-) I also like how you never surrender. So, while the sadness carries through, you somehow managed to make me smile. I love a good, fighting spirit.

Me n pain are well acquainted. I loved this write, very descriptive of me also, but as I was , not as I am. Just read your skeleton blog. Look forward to reading more but intermittently because that is how I am nowadays. God Bless. D.
