Thank God for Pain

Smiling through the pain isn’t the bravest thing but the happiest self-satisfied feeling
They would say about not letting your old flame not burn you twice
They don’t understand the beauty that lies in the ashes,
Rising from the ashes
Some will call it addiction, obsession, possession, love, stupidity name it all
But there’s so much pleasure in pain
Being a slave of something, someone and finally being free at your own will.

Explains why born of a nurse I’d still not take aspirin for a headache
Or bedridden days of dysmenorrhea would make me feel the woman in me
To be in a dark, be sick, be hurt, be betrayed, be in pain
To feel it all
To be human, to be dependent
THANK GOD FOR PAIN
