The pain I now know

I know sadness
I know misery
I know pain
I know suffering
I know these
I know more
I know laughter
I know tears
I know joy
How I know these thigs
Are because these are my life
I know life gives
I know it takes
I know we are mortal
I know our souls aren't
I know life
I know death
These are my life
When you lose
Someone close
I can relate
To the pain
To the sadness
I know this pain
it is my own
I have loved
I have lost
All there is left to say is
Always the same:
I know your pain
But please stay strong.


Darkest wishes
