Pain

It is sad sometimes,

You try your best to ease someone's pain.

Yet your own? 

Belittled to no end...

Pain is not objective,

When you cry,

It is not always sad,

There are such thing as tears of joy.

Pain is like that, it is exhaustive,

In quietness, there is pain,

In loudness, there is pain,

In a smile, there is pain,

In an expresionless face, there is pain.

We are all miserable one way or another,

Mine this, yours the other,

All I want to do is get through the day,

Least you could do is let me grieve in my own way.
