Plain Pain

Troubles may feel harsh
In this crazy marsh


But don't run away
Bravely face each day


Truth is not in vain
Even in plain pain


Sad regrets can taunt
As despair now haunts


Plain pain can set free
Your tragic story


Be mindful of fest
Feel the touch of jest


Wit dilutes worry
Glimpse your true story


Rapture hides in pain
No one lives in vain
