Burning Through The Pain

I lie awake with throbbing pain

Some times I wonder if I’ve gone insane.

The pain courses through my limbs like fire
………Of this.................. I truly tire

I refuse to let the tears flow tragically
While my body burns in agony

Voices remind me to hold tight
Voices say “keep up the fight”

The tears I hold back begin to burn
Slowly now its my turn

Drowning, burning in my pain
Self pity has come to claim

Swallow the knot that’s formed so tight
I gotta keep up this burning fight

I see the light of another dawn

All i have to do is hold on

I will not take this all in vain
I will beat this burning pain
