A life of chronic pain
is so very hard to explain.
You laugh, you cry,
You scream and wonder why
This life you live,
It just doesn't give.
It takes and it takes
Until you simply break.
It's up and it's down-
It turns you all around.
You're happy, you're sad.
At times, you're downright mad.
But you live and you learn.
You grow and you yearn
For the simple things,
The joy life brings,
And the love He shows
Through the ebb and flow.
