Chapter 587
Pain
Pain can come in many forms
It may be imagined or real
It can happen in the body or mind
Damage or trauma to either we can feel
Physical damage may often heal
The actual pain fades with time in the mind
It seems the damaged to a mind itself
Is more difficult to heal and leave behind
Some seek physical pain
To know and feel they are alive
What in their mind do they deprive
What madness do they contrive
Mental pain can happen
Without any physical touch
It seems to happen from within
It can scar and hurt so much
It has often been said
There is no gain without pain
When is it better to refrain
To prevent damage to the brain
Nobody
