Love Poem: Degrees of Pain

Degrees of Pain

Pain comes in degrees,
In ever darkening shades
of misery
Today is a physical nightmare
Awesome is the pain
Nowhere is relief
Gives me naught but grief...

But endure I will
And fight on I will
I will conquer this agony
Trust in my ability
To bear what I must bear,
To face what I must face,
For physical pain..
Must be put in its place

No pain is forever
No sin is unforgiven
To prove this fact,
Our Lord has risen

To welcome us to Him
To help us with our sin
To bear the brunt of
resurrection
For we are all his kin...

So, despair not child,
Your day will come
When you are with
The love of some
Who see you for
What you really are,
A shining light above,
A precious star.
