Painfulchange

i have wondered why
my life still subsides
why do we love
family shows more we know
and thats what it takes to grow
pain and loss is a cost
the heart takes
swallow the trueth and make it mine
thats what he said to the people
once it hurt and now it dont
dont be prejuduce to the jurks
love is everwhere to the one
and then nowhere and be afriad
