Pain

The tears that drop down your eyes
can sting a heart half a world away.

This is pain.

The first fall of a child
moistens the parents eyes.

This is pain.

When an animal succumbs

...the mindlessness is pain!

When failure is promoted...
and labels decide your fate.

Shamelessness is pain.

When God's precepts
demands blood and violence.

Pain is a game.

And when you are hurt, my love,
and I can't squeeze you tight.
