Pain is pain
You'd expect someone born in a thunderstorm
To understand the rain
You'd expect someone born in darkness
To see through the dark
But pain is pain
No matter how long
It hurts the same.
You'd expect someone born in poverty
To understand hunger
To know the struggle
To comprehend
Learn to hide the shame
Learn to make life out of the least
And maybe to accept that its fate
But pain is pain
Even the impoverished seek change
But what is change
When a monkeys paw gives back little than it takes
When we keep all that's best to oneself
Even when with all that, we still want more
You'd expect the wise to be wiser
You'd expect age to come with grace
But pain is pain
True understanding can only be achieved when the other side comes to comprehend the other's pain
To understand the rain

To see through the dark
But pain is pain
No matter how long
It hurts the same.

You have described quite beautifully the four letter word of pain in the most poetic manner. It just advises us pain arrives in many shades, from, social stigmatism, the pain to be abused in love, the pain of physically suffering, and the pain of poverty and in being homeless. This is one of your musings I can really appreciate my King

thank you my queen...
all i'm trying to do is to bridge the gap with words
the gap between classes, sex and race
hoping to one day find understanding
thank you my Queen
