Title of The Work: The Revealing Pain
Pain isn’t mysterious
Pain is the childhood friend that you never need to reacquaint yourself with
It can be sweet like a lover’s embrace
And it can ruin you like a lover’s last embrace
Pain is familiar
It’s your childhood bedroom where you never felt quite right, but crave as soon as you leave
Pain is predictable and the least scary part of our lives
But the pain that comes from wanting you is unlike anything I’ve ever known
You’re redefining everything i know
You’re the scale in which i measure life right now
And if i weren’t so mystified and terrified, i would find that magical
