A hidden pain

What is pain?
Is it loss or is it gain?
A loss of love Or a gain of strength,
Take a deep breath give it some length,
Inhale exhale let it all out,
There's so much to cry about,
So scream and shout,
Just Verbalize the doubt,
They say our world is dying,
Can we make it through?
I still see people trying,
But what more can we do?
A bottle, a blunt, a line, a needle,
Anything we can just to not feel,
Till our lives fade to black,
And our soul is driven into the abyss,
There's no coming back,
No telling who's going to miss,
That nice warm smile you always used to fake,
For everyone else's sake,
The whole while you were crying out to God so loud that you couldn't hear him crying out to you.
