4 LETTERS


4 letters

No words 

No time 

What is PAIN

I know that it contains 4 letters

But what does those 4 letters mean

I cant even

Put them into words

Yet even something that rhymes

It all sounds right in my head 

Comes out worng

Pain takes time 

Time most of us don't have 

Seems like we all feel it 

Even though in that moment of time 

It seems to be the worst Pain of your life 

It only seems to get worse 

For me I felt it at a young age 

The Pain 

The Suffering 

Realizing these 

4 letters can hurt me this much

Wanting to never feel the burden of Pain 

Yet I feel like I am pron to it

When I see someone else in Pain 

I look back and see how much Pain 

I was and I am suffering in 

Compared to there's 

In that moment I felt relieved that someone was feeling Pain

Feeling someone thing I have been for a long time

No ones Pain

Can be compared 

We try to explain to others 

How we feel 

Try to put into words 

But we seem to end up with only for letters 

We say its only 4 letters 

But it seems to always add up

Realizing those 4 letters 

Stay with you 

Even when 

You feel like its all Gone 

It comes back 

Why

4 letters

Why can it cause us so much 

Destruction 

So Much anger 

So much un- answered questions

Theses 4 letters make us 

Make me feel so much PAIN

4 LETTERS !!!!

What are your letters?
