There Is No Life Without Its Share of Pain
There is no life without its share of pain,
Nor can you love and not feel agony,
A need whose hunger drives you near insane,
A state in which you must, but cannot be.
There is no cure, nor anything to say,
Nor any aspirin for unhappiness.
Other friends and loves will come your way
And then pass on through death or faithlessness.
And so if you would ever dwell in joy,
You must embrace the agony of sorrow.
Time will all you love and need destroy,
But you will heal to love again tomorrow. |

| Hey!FIRST OF ALL I was scrolling thougrh old comments and saw that you apologized for being rude to me. DEAR LORD I can't remember anything remotely resembling what that might have been! You are so NOT rude! So truly, whatever you are apologizing for, it's not necessary. :-)Second of all I like this one, but again, love the SHOWING more than the TELLING. Can you put these words of wisdom into a narrative, symbols, etc? More poetic? Or, alternatively, this could be an excellent essay. :-) |
