Bittersweet

The pain rips through my body once more
Raw, burning agony cripping up my spine 
  I wish I knew how to handle this from before 
But all I can do is to grit my teeth and whine

  I hate to see you worried, I hate to complain
  Your arms wrap around me so I'll endure the pain
   How I feel while you're here is hard to explain
  Each kiss and loving whisper makes me smile again

   Isn't this magnificent? I think as our lips meet
   I'm always in pain but with you it's bittersweet
