This Pain

I wake with this pain

It is strong enough to eat through me

Yet I feel at peace with it

For without it I am affraid to live.

For as long as I can remember it has been there

And without it I might be lost.

It has made me who I am today

And influences the decisions I make

Though it my seem strange I love this pain more than anything

Because of this pain I am a great mother

Because of this pain I am strong

And because of this pain everyone knows you are wrong

I use to pray for this pain to go away

Now I know without it there would be no you

For now I know that it's not just a pain

It is the Journey you have put me through
