Pain

PAIN II
(You Have to have it -- or do you?)

Pain is not the Truth
Pain is what we think we must go through to Find the Truth!

Pain is not Love
Love is not Pain
Pain is not a synonym for Love

Pain is what we think we must have 
in order to be in Love with someone!
Pain is what we think we must receive from another 
in order for someone to Love us!

If I get in your face
If I put you down
If I make you wrong
Then I must Love you
Because I give you pain!

When I express to you how wonderful you are
When I express to you that I think you do great things
When I express to you anything of a positive nature
Then I must not Love you
Because I do not give you pain!

Maybe, 
to eliminate Pain
we must eliminate blame and complaining.
Maybe, 
to eliminate blame and complaining
we must accept 
the choices we have made in our life
are the choices we have made in our life.

Maybe,
to really love someone
is just to love them
because you love them
for who they are
and for who they are not.
And, for no other reason!
    
     So it is Written...
         So it is
