Compromising Pain

Compromised
By pain
Joy is contained
Putting me
In an awkward,
Position
I want to let the joy show
That I know
But this little wall of pain
Often blocks my ray,
Of joy
So I sustain,
Discomfort
One can only wonder
What
Is the compromising agent
Which makes,
My joy appear vacant
Making the mind
The body
The soul
Frustrated
One can only wonder
What, is the answer
