Pain

Pain...

clung to me

like a crybaby 

weighing me down.

As I gave in

it simply took over

letting me drown.

Whispered

an inner voice -

"There must be

a better choice.

It's your pain

just face it. 

Why not

embrace it?

Cuddle your little

crybaby

Sing its 

favourite lullaby.

Just don't give in,

don't let it act tough.

Simply feel its 

loosening grip

leaving you feel

strong enough."
