tingling needle sting surges through
deep down saturated electrical pain
much like a limb falling asleep
except all day searing radiance
never inhibits strength or coordination
constant awakened agitation
the reminder of being alive

the pain teaches empathy
nerve damage felt first hand
relating the feeling
the pain teaches compassion
never approach another's pain with condescension
pain teaches patience
to endure the day through
push through, do what is expected
hiding the sensation deep below the surface
the pain connects
makes aware
the reminder of being alive
