Pain makes you stronger.
Pain is giving it everything you have,
And watching the clock run out and your team lose.
Pain is running until your muscles feel like they are being ripped apart,
And knowing that it is the only way you can ever get better.
Pain is losing your uncle, your grandmother, your grandfather, and your dog all in one summer,
And as that summer ends your house flooding and you losing everything you own.
Pain is watching as the girl you have been in love with your entire life fall in love with a jerk.
A jerk that will cheat on her,
Use her for his own sick needs,
Make her feel like she is worthless,
And then throw her out of his life like she was a common whore.
Pain is being six years old and hoping your father will not get drunk again and beat you,
The way he has so many other nights.
Pain is someone shoving a red-hot iron into your flesh,
Burning and tourturing you and then spitting in your face as you cower in fear.
Pain will hunt you no matter where you go.
Pain will swim to the deepest abyss in the ocean to find you.
Pain will climb to the highest mountains just to make you hurt.
Pain will always be closing in on you,
Whispering in your ear:
"I am coming for you and there is nothing you can do to stop me."
But without pain we could never truly appreciate life,
Without pain we could never truly appreciate how beautiful the world really is.
