Pain
Lord, take this pain away,
I can't take it any longer,
I thought You said,
All this would make me stronger.
You forgot to mention,
How much it would hurt,
It makes me want to scream,
Into my shirt.
Why do I have to
Go through this again?
It seems to me that
Pain always wins.
Is this a punishment,
If it is, what did I do?
When will the pain,
Ever be through?
Will You ever see a smile,
Appear on my face,
When will I leave,
This painful place?
