Completely mistaken, I must be
Why is it that I couldn’t see?
Oh, yes!  Burning pain so hot and sharp
That fully blinded me.

Why should all good lead to pain?
What made me think it thus?
Who says that hurt must have its reign?
It can be stopped without much fuss.

Pain is natural, it must be had
It’s all in the mind, amplified only by that
It really needn’t be that bad
Keep on living, it’ll fade to black

As now, I can see
Everlasting love is possible, happily

I don’t need pain,
That’s not why I’m here
I’m here for love
And the two don’t have to come together

I couldn’t see this before
As I hadn’t the need
But I think now, for me
The flower of love has come to seed

In the beginning, if it goes well
pain will come into play
But now that I can handle it
My life will have no delay

I’ll wait it out
And in the end
Everlasting love will be achieved

Wha'cha think?
