The strength in your pain

The pain,

The pain stabs the heart,

No strings attached,

Just world apart

The pain,

If not a weak wailing cry

It’s the pain of burden

Heavier than you can ever feel

The pain.

It leaves you shut out and aloof

But strength has no vicinity

Strength needs no whining

It is inside you,

The strength is less about the devil

and more about you

Your war is about you

About what you feel is right

About what you feel is true

The aftermath pain is always described

But strength is left to be spoken about

If the strength and support overshadow the pain

The representation can be about the truth

Rather than blaming and stigmas
