Hello pain my old friend
Take time to heal they said
But even with time
You never left

The pills they supplied
Gave relief for a while
Until you returned
You couldn’t say goodbye

We embrace each day
To the mirror I say
I’ll get through it I’m strong
Always hoping I’m not wrong

Pain you make me sit and weep
Sometimes I can’t stay on my feet
The tears fall free
Won’t you please let me be

One day I will be free of pain
My friend you won’t come back again
I pray that day I soon will see
That you will have the heart to leave
