Analysis of OUR PAIN

Emily sims 1989 (Basingstoke)



Ever wanted to fly away,
From all our pain,
We go through so much,
That causes more strain,
We hide away from everyone,
To stop us getting hurt,
So we crawl away,
Feeling small and alert,
We snap at everybody,
Hurting them too,
Only seeing our pain,
That makes us numb and blue,
We feel all the pain,
And feel all alone,
We need people to help us,
Showing us it's alright,
That it may take a while,
For us to see the light,
They will hold us up,
When we're feeling weak,
They will make us stronger,
With every word they speak,
So if you have someone who is there,
Make sure to let them in,
Keep them close to your heart,
And keep on living.
