Giving up Pain

Pain seems to be the littlest thing
That is the most easily forgotten
That is the most easily hidden

Denying our hurt is second nature
Done without thought or concern
Just a way of living life

But our wounds can mark more
Then our imposing protective shell
It touches us to the bone

A little hurt like a blister
A cold sore or a cut
Can often be ignored

But think of how the time passes
The people who get to you
All those pressing annoyances

All from a little hurt
Can make us wonder why
The universe is feeling so vindictive

It's just a cut
It's just a scrap
It's just a little nothing

Accept pain when you feel it
So you know that it's nothing
Just pain, and nothing more

Hurts will hurt
And pain is painful
And wounds can wound

But it doesn't mean anything
Just know that you feel it
and then give it up.
