Why I Love Pain

For me
pain will always remain beautiful,
an opulent display of deep human emotions
weaved to perfection
in the moment of despair

For me
pain will always bring the honest verses
layered in a symphonic perfection
for when in pain
the heart speaks raw from deep within

For me
pain is the epitome of honesty
oozing sincerity in its truest form
for when in pain
there is no charade
pulling away the shroud we wear otherwise

  1. Beautiful words – and so true. The depth in pain is not available in happiness. So to live life deeply, somehow we end up having to feel and embrace pain. Thank you for this thought provoking piece. 🙂

  2. So true.. pain is the ultimate truth.. as it follows heartbreaks, and it is followed by lessons of life.. pain makes us realise where we stand.. pain paves the path towards enlightenment.. a masterpiece in itself.. thanks a bunch.. 😇😇

  3. Oh this touches me so deep \. You have wrung out the pain from your soul and gave them the shape of your beautiful verses. As we know, pain and beauty goes hand in hand.

  4. I agree Shantanu, sometimes we do need to stop hiding, and bring out the true feelings inside of us.
    And then. pain will be beautiful, it will be honest.

  5. Amazingly described … for me pain is a source of inspiration.. inspiration to express, love, feel … pain makes me what I am … pain brings out the me in me ..

  6. Very interesting poem. I think sometimes pain helps us be in touch with uncomfortable feelings and these uncomfortable feelings lead to beautiful creations. -Jill
