Pain, Pain, Go Away

each day i awake 
and i fear the most hated thing in my life, 
"pain". 
i think about the childrens tune" 
pain pain go away,come again another day" 
in which the words 
should be rain, i use pain. 
i suffer tremendously 
with this "pain" in my face and 
i try to grin and bear it 
but the "pain" is so severe, i
give in to it.

its amazing how your life can change 
in a split second,
one minute you're on top of the world,
  the next minute, the"pain is on top of you. 
i still don't know, like many other people 
what causes this, thing to happen, it just does. 
i assume it picks out the ones it wants to. 

i'm not sure if i can continue to handle this. 
the "pain affects my work, and my everyday life. 
i try to get through but it's so hard.
at this moment, i am hurting, 
as i type, 
i hurt, 
as i talk, 
as i walk 
as i eat, drink and sleep 
i hurt.

sure i take medicine for it, which it cures it some 
but when it comes back, 
it comes back strong.!!!! 
taking no for an answer. 

one thing i do, 
i pray to god each and everyday to make it stop, 
because the thing i hate 
the most, 
despise, 
loth, 
resent, 
has taken over part of my face, 

i wish one day 
i can wake up, 
without the hate and 
despising 
and lothing 
that i have for this"PAIN".
