Pain

I am always in pain.

Be it emotional,

Be it physical.

It surrounds me.

It plagues me.

It hurts.

And sometimes

When it is strongest,

I want to fall.

I want it to end.

But it doesn't relent.

So neither will I.

I'll do whatever 

I have to.

Anything but give in.

Give me courage

Give me strength

I can do this.
