Pain; thy name

In the midst of shadow,
there lay a broken heart,
a broken dream.
Nay was it caused by the arrows of cupid,
but by the presence of change.

Pain, thy name.
An ill name, it was meant.
Yet it's unfair! Unjust!
For it breezes the wind of lessons,
forces us to mend what is broken,
forces us to see what lies ahead,
whether it's the light of heaven beyond the mountain,
or the pits of the black hole within the universe.

Some say it does not care!
It's a foe!
It shall be banished!

Alas as always,
at the end of a day into the beginning of a night,
we are wiser than we were.
How can it be, we asked.

Only then we look back,
Seeing pain, bidding farewell, as it wishes for only..

" May the new be better, May the heart be calmer, May the mind be wiser, May the soul be fairer "
