Pain Is Purposeful

I remember it all
Every tear, every step
When the pain wraps around you 
And claims back your breath
How the fear makes you idle
And you start to believe
That darkness will forever 
Loom over me 
And as you fall through the abyss 
Deep into its gloom 
Let the shadows caress you 
And watch yourself bloom
Though the colours are faded 
And you can't bare the weight 
Know that all of your pain 
Will be useful one day

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
