Pain
They say there is no gain Without enduring pain But what if it hurts bad Or makes us really sad?
Pain is our body’s way Of it having its say Telling us something’s wrong And may last all day long
For when pain is forming It’s an early warning And a sort of alert To tell you that you’re hurt
We cannot be at peace Until that pain does cease But do we ever pause To find out the root cause?
