Lost In Darkness

Pain /peɪn/ - 1- Highly or unpleasant physical sensation caused by illness or injury.
2-Mental suffering or distress.

Pain had never really meant anything to me when I was younger. To me pain was stubbing my toe on the side of a counter or getting stung by a wasp. Pain had misled me my whole life, pain gave me false assumptions, false impressions. Pain was never physical; pain was wanting something more than anything in the whole world and not being able to get it. Pain was being so close yet so far. Pain was not succeeding at the thing most important to you. People speak of pain a lot, they tell us all about how terrible it is and that we should avoid it, they all seem to conveniently miss out the part where it's unavoidable.

Pain couldn't be escaped.

So here's my story of my pain, the story of how I finally gave up running.
