The pain will hold on gently
As you move throughout your day
You’ll try to shake it softly
But quickly learn it wants to stay
It lingers in the corner
It follows you around
Juts when you think you’ve lost it
You learn no solace can be found
So here’s a trick, I’ve learned a few
For me and pain, we’re good old friends
And pain’s afraid of love, you see
Because love, it always mends
So openup your eyes a bit
Inhale deep and strong
Look for the twinkle of loves presence
That surrounds you all day long
It could be here, it could be there
A thought, a mile, a gift
Look for the love in every moment
And your pain will start to shift
Just start small, and whynot now
Find something good to think of
Pain will shy away, you’ll see
When what you focus on is love
And bit by bit , you’ll chip away
At that old block you now call pain
And when you’re finished chipping
You’ll find that pain has a new name
