When it settles in deep
It’s not something
That can be
Shaken off easily
Discarded at will
Pain
Settled in Can only be
Picked up
And carried
Brought along
Through life
Until the weight of it lifts
Until the bulk of it
Lessens
Disintegrates almost
Leaving only its shell
A forever reminder
Of a journey made
Of wisdom gainedOf pain survived
