Damaged Case

Damaged Case

Pain is what makes me realize that I'm alive,

When you take it away from me I simply want to curl up and die,

As without this pain that I feel deep inside,

I would not be able to live my life without knowing one day there would be an end,

I have to live each day to the fullest my friend,

Make sure you take every inch of doubt and every amount of anguish you can,

For if you do not you're really not living as you are just existing then,

As the difference is when you LIVE you share the good and the bad of this place,

Yet when you EXIST you're a shell that goes through the motions my damage case.

A interesting way to look at life. Most of us learn to live with pain. Ain't no easy to escape. I like how you made your point in this poem.
