Pain and Serenity

Everything is so clear to me

Why things happened even though it was unfortunate to see

Good things always seem to come from tragedy

Even though it is a pain that creates holes so deep it surpasses the sea

Anyone can get lost if they try to swim too deep

It's the pain with the loss of people that said it would be forever

The betrayal of those that were trusted most

And the violence that has been dealt with through adolescence

It shatters dreams lacerating the flesh with constant reminders

Notes that fill a void that is trying to stay clean from the pollution of pain

Whispers from those that held hate for our disfiguration

Demons heating up the situations telling me I should just jump "no one will hear you scream"

The baggage from the past that continues the haunt me

Digging my grave while paying with the deceased as a game

When will this pain dissipate and become free from me?

When will I find this peace others speak?

Serenity is a state of peace

At least that is what it's perceived to be

Nothing but happiness that fills voids in the heart and quiet the voices that invade the mind

But wat is pain without serenity

With the pain that is felt

Peace finds its way to slip through the cracks

Tranquility is a border between the pain and agony

It is okay to feel as if the world is falling apart

And the pieces that have be broken cannot be renewed

Many times, it may seem past due

But it never too late to turn those cracks in your appearance into art in the making

Standing out from the difficulties

Serenity is the peace of accepting the past

But not making it apart of you

To learn from it live from its examples but not to dwell on the mistakes nor the pain

Pain and serenity are a balancing act that make us who we are supposed to be

Unique to situations and compassionate to the consequences

To live through the pain to meet serenity with open arms

To be different and knowledgeable about these circumstances

That is the reason for pain

Pain is the gateway to serenity
