Analysis of Pain
To share love so wonderful
With one so beautiful, is pain
Pain so deep it burrows into the soul
When misunderstandings arise of love shared
This pain, so muddied from understanding not
Causing questions where questions belong not
How did this come to be?
Is concern a form of doubt?
To endure pain is not to run
It may be a fool's game to endure when necessary it is not
But is kindness, foolish?
Or is it foolish to be kind?
This I know not.
To thee,
I ask, I beg, I pray
Think not less of me for my mistakes
For love as yours
I am sure not to find ever again
And to hope or search for such again
Will never again be my goal.
