Pain Pain

Why are you here?

What have I done,

To bring this tear?

A day or two

I can bare,

But this constant pain

Doesn’t seem fair.

I pray, I plead,

I search for an end.

The answers I await

For my body to mend.

The days become weeks,

Then months to years.

A new reality I have,

I must face the fear.

I see the lessons,

The wisdom of pain.

Humility, love and compassion,

Are traits I gain.

The golden light,

Begins to shine.

Finding blessings,

In all the grime.

With each day,

Hope renews.

I can make it,

With some new shoes.

I walk a new path,

With truth and grace.

I carry the Spirit,

And a song of praise.

I lean on others,

To give and receive.

I learn to honor,

This pain in me.
