Pain Oh Pain

a challenge of aging

Pain oh endless pain
never seeming to go away
When you have lived too long
you have the devil to pay

 

Pain my help us a lot
by saying something's wrong
What all have suspected
 was true all along

 

Not admitting the problem
and finding out some day
Is a poor choice for health
what else can one say

 

The pain will get worse
or maybe it will end
The message that was sent
was the help it tried to lend

 

Since pain is in the mind
answering to some nerves
Better health will control it
that's how good health serves

 

Responding to the pain
is never an easy task
It is hard to find the person
who is the best one to ask

 

If we are not careful
 in finding the person we choose
With the advice we might get
our life we might lose

 

Professional advice
should be better than none
Help reducing the pain
may then have begun
