The Pain Within

We all feel the pain inside,

 roiling and writhing within.

 The pain can be overbearing,

 taking over like an uncontrollable flame.

 Lapping at your heels like a mad ravaged dog,

 Ready to consume you all.

 Love can't always penetrate the pain,

 instead making it only lessen like rain.

 Sometimes you need more than love to ease the pain,

 Sometimes, you need true friends to push it back.
