Befriending Pain
Some say you are unfortunate,
Because you cry alone while you sleep,
Little did they know you are hiding something,
A great bravery you alone could keep.

Dear one, let your tears escape from those weary eyes,
Let out that painful hum of anguish reality,
And as the invisible spear slowly pierced into your heart,
You slowly bled alone silently.

Broken pieces of yourself shattered on the floor,
Stomped by someone you dearly adore.
You knelt and started to pick them up,
Its every piece touched your fingertips' core,
And leave you bled once more.

Yet, a sudden smile has formed in your lips,
For you felt something even death could not resist,
Happiness through pain it's all there is,
And the antidote you longed for is your unfulfilling wish.
