Pain of Memory
"Pain is such a nuisance," it may have been said.
However, don't you see?
If Sir Isaac Newton had not have bonked his head,
We would have never discovered gravity,
And the same goes for memories.
Memories make us who we are inside.
Deep down, they make us strong or scared.
If you take every bothering step in stride,
You are bound to be snared.
Do not regret your pain,
That is not what I am saying.
We grow from our experiences,
So that, they may not be experienced again.
