Pain
Have you ever felt pain?
Acute pain?
Something is not right, you know it
Something far from pain
Shred off the masks, say the truth
Do not only complain
or sustain
The pain
It will come again and again
Till you lose the taste of life there and in between
Nothing is of value anymore
A black cloud colors everything, and drains
The energy from your body, soul and brain
Have you ever experienced such pain?
Go ahead, share your story, there’s nothing to hide or contain
We’re all human, eh?
Are we sure of that, or are we trying to explain?
To each other, to the world, that our life is not in vain
What if this was a dream?
A long nightmare
Full of pain
Full of struggle and disappointment, would you refrain?
from living it, or could you abstain?
Is there an option? Can you submit a complain?
Has anyone asked you to enter the dream?
Have you been aware of what lies ahead?
Do not hide the pain
It will come again
Unless you wake up from the dream
The so long nightmare
There will be no pain
Maybe!
Another nightmare might be waiting around the corner
to suck you in
into an endless sort of pain
From which there’s no escape
Or going back to the first dream
Of lesser pain…
