Pain [21]


You may think that my

pain [21] is a drag


It's not really that way

See


I am well familiar with joy

Which is tantamount to pain [21]


Today I express

A foregone conclusion


The weight of both

Are equal and the same


One without the other


Is like a fish out of water


This is not a puzzle

Just a observation


Suffering is here with joy

And the question is


How will you handle it
