Pain vs. Love
Love and Pain.
Pain and Love.
One a Raven—
The other a Dove.
Two different things?
Not really, no.
They exist together-
A friend and a foe.
Though love is ‘good’
And pain is ‘bad’
Love can make people
Disheartened and sad.
And though pain can hurt
For some it’s not so.
They crave the feeling
Wherever they go.
Wanting love, in contrast,
Really isn’t that great.
It causes problems
That most people hate.
In my opinion,
Affection and care
Are too…sentimental
For my cold-hearted air.
Don’t get me wrong-
I have feelings, too.
But they don’t matter much
To me, or to you.
Pain and Love.
Love and Pain.
Who says they aren’t
Exactly the same?
