Take Away The Pain

Writing is symbolism,
No one really likes masochism.
When I write,
The pain takes flight.
I feel happier after a poem,
Like I've chased away a storm.
All the pain and beatings,
I'm lucky my hair line isn't receiting.
All I think about is how to make someone else feel joy,
Sometimes they use my heart like a toy.
I write and write,
That's how I fight.
The pen is greater than the sword,
Pain is weak to word.
Music and melody,
Laughter and comody.
All written to take away the pain.
