PAIN


It was never something I understood, I tried to reach into the great deep And find the one thing my twisted mind sought, Pain! Reached out so far, Shrunk into the worst darkness But still the light always found me Not the one I desired, Pain! Unresting, unminding, I'll keep trying Even if it brings me the worst of scars They won't matter once I find the one I seek, Pain!
