that marks you as man
that marks you alive
that makes you take a stand

memories are collections
of different sorts of pain
thoughts are the connections
to the place your soul is stained

we all bowed down
we knelt and we scraped
and across our shoulders
a mantle of pain was draped

we'll never find relief
we'll never see the end
all we get is pain
so share it with a friend

Don't face this god
don't take the pain
stand and fight

Kudos!
You have a partner Reverend. I also have pains in my knees , calves and legs. Your verse is just what I needed.
There is Divine Providence, Praise the Lord.!
Stand up and fight.

Born out the depths of pain and baptised in human suffering then the human spirit rises more glorious than anyone can imagine. I have seen it through my work and as with your strong empowering words I am inspired and amazed by the inner strength found.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
