Pain taken freely
Location
I would take the pain away
For a day
A week
A year
However long it takes
To make them feel alive
I would take the pain away
Make it my own
So they could live, laugh and love
So they could go to school
A normal child
However long it takes
To make them feel alive
I would take the pain away
Donate my hair
My blood
An organ if I have one to spare
To let them live
To let their shining faces light up a room
However long it takes
To make them feel alive
I would take the pain away
Donate my time
My energy
To someone who doesn’t have much
I have too much to keep to myself
However long it takes
However many days, months, or years
I would take their pain
And make it my own
