My Pain's Alive

My pain is alive
It decides when, where, and how it strikes
My pain lives
It has it own heartbeat
It races, paces
And it can even skip a beat
My pain has choices to make
Sick, burning, numbing, pricking
Cramping, ice cold, burning hot
Which to choose?
If it wasn't for my pain's life
Would I life?
All I know is my pain's alive
