Shedding

Pain is conducted through people like electricity, pain jumps from one to the next. Everyone faces pain, it's an unstoppable power. No matter how big or small the pain can destroy one's soul and mind. It takes, breaks, and taunts us all, then once it's sucked your agony dry it goes to another and leaves you as whatever is left. Pain is temporary, like skin on a snake, and will one day shed away leaving you behind, the old skin is nothing but an empty shell left for you to see.
