Analysis of Pain

Yvette M. Sanchez 1964 (Ohio)



All this pain,
What do you gain?
Nothing I say.
But I'm the one who has to pay.
For What?
A kick in the butt?
Why? Why?
I say with a sigh.
What are you trying to prove?
Acting like you got your groove.
You take and take.
Your so fake.
I wish you'd drown in a lake.
Go ahead and make my day,
Cause you'll be the one to pay.
