PAIN

You have heard it said, “No gain without the pain!”

Just like an elite athlete who has to go through it all again.

*

Pain in the positive keeps us from harm,
Imagine a world filled with amputees, what a qualm.

*

When you feel pain whether severe or mild,

You always have sympathy, especially with a child.

*

I have felt pain just like you; we live in this cursed world you see,

We can't escape the knocks and bumps, even falling from a tree.

*
In my life I have lived with constant physical pain, a dark shadow you can't shake,

I looked for relief and longed for a break.

*

Pain killers we all have taken,

but after some time the pain returns then we feel forsaken.

*

Once, I had my throat slashed open, and lived to tell the tale,
no anesthetic could be given me, to no avail.

*

Have you ever felt the pain of a broken heart?
I’m sure many have, time will heal you to make a new-start!

*

Take the marathon runner, the pain of breaking through “the Wall”
Yes, a second wind they say, after they’ve given their ALL!

*

The ache of being alone, missing the someone to love,

  hope of finding the one who’ll fit like a glove.

*

The pain and anguish of defeat, whether inside or out.
A time of reflection on what could have been, without a doubt.

*

There will come a time and a day, you will be set-free, 

 standing on life's dais, shouting VICTORY!

*

The pain of child-birth only women have to bear,
 after your baby comes into the world, a gush of unbridled joy and pleasure without a care.

*

Jesus, took your pain and sorrow!
For *you* to be healed ~ to live for tomorrow!

*

In this life, we all have pains and trials, be it physical, emotional, or mental,
gve love to someone with a kind word, not accidental.

*
When next, you meet someone hurting, give them a hug, encourage them with comfort and hope,

then the World will be a better place, by giving them Love to cope.

*
