Pain
Part 4 in “Finding my own voice”
An unpleasant sensation, a sudden jolt,
A constant companion, a lightening bolt.
Carrying the weight of action and stress
Every step agony, from one to the next.
Suffering in silence, or needing to cry out
You’re not alone amidst certainty or doubt
Bodies remember the hurts of the past
Hearts reach out for a peace that lasts.
With a deep breath, and a silent scream
Release the fear of what’s in between
Forged in fires that flicker and burn
Something hidden you’re meant to learn
Neither good nor evil, just part of the deal
Lean in not away, your truths are revealed
Focus the energy of heartache and loss
See light emerging, clearing the fog
Step by step, you rise up when you fall.
One by one, you shatter each wall.
Keep moving forward don’t look back
Your journey through life is right on track
Rely on the strength hidden deep within
Your dreams exists where your limits begin
Just as rainbows always follow the rain
Wonder and beauty always follows the pain
