Pain as a Brother

Being aware of your suffering...

Distance the fear,

I welcome pain as a brother.

Show your long roots,

so that I may build my garden.

The inside's dark,

walk with me till the light finds us.

Thought I ruined,

instead, you've handed me lessons.

Our past will laugh,

rejoicing the old wounds and scars.

It will be soon,

you'll grow and wander elsewhere.

I'll be waiting,

someday we shall meet again.
