Dear Pain

I wear my wounds well

I tried to hide it well

But I couldn't bear it so no one could really tell

You got my red blood slippin' through my veins

Made me angry as hell

A Fist flew swinging at me through my chest

Hard as a rock

Felt like my heart is coming out

My body is cold

I'm numb like a rock

I felt like he shot me

Now I’m done

Dear Pain

I don't know what to say

But I just want to say Thank You

Thank you pain

You make me faded

I’m so outdated

I can take it

And hear I say

Thank you

Thank you for letting people stab me in the back

Now the stabbing is mutual and considering

You don’t hurt me

And scare me anymore

But I Thank you

THANK YOU PAIN!!!!!
