That which I cannot control
becomes aggravation for my soul.

Life
Love
Pain

Saving a life, straight up trade
at the end of the day
would mean more pain anyway.

Finding love, pure and true
eludes even the most romantic
of this why, I have not a clue.

For all those in pain:
What can anyone really say?
Endure, smile, it goes away.
