Share Pain

You try to understand,
But you can't quite wrap your head around
The pain I've laid out for you to see.
I can tell.
It's not for a lack of trying,
Nor should you be blamed.
You cannot teach someone to feel an emotion
They've never felt before.
Do not let your heart be troubled,
By sympathy and care without comprehension,
For I have a secret for you:

I do not quite understand my pain either.

Yet the tears still fall
And the heart still writhes.
Arms still bring comfort
In the warmth that simple love provides.
