The Purpose Of Pain
what is the purpose of pain?
what task was it given over my name?
it punishes me for innovations and deviations
I must exist within its boundaries
and remain plain
but the more I stay within the frame
the more I become restless and insane
it protects to imprison me
keeping me caged
I remain plain
beyond its borders, is there a paradise?
is pain a portal to lands immortal
and times unknown?
what secrets lie beyond its limits?
and dare I risk it?
dare I risk losing my name?
what task was it given over my name?
it punishes me for innovations and deviations
I must exist within its boundaries
and remain plain
but the more I stay within the frame
the more I become restless and insane
it protects to imprison me
keeping me caged
I remain plain
beyond its borders, is there a paradise?
is pain a portal to lands immortal
and times unknown?
what secrets lie beyond its limits?
and dare I risk it?
dare I risk losing my name?

One of the purposes of pain is to let us know we are alive and that death is coming sometime within are near or distant future. Check me out.
