My Pain Walks With Me Poem by Shalom Freedman

My Pain Walks With Me



My pain walks with me
And with each step I feel it again-
I tell my consciousness to go elsewhere
Sometimes it does and can,
Sometimes I walk as if my pain is not with me
But then it comes again-

My pain is my enemy
And yet it is with me
And I do not know how to make it go away completely-

I used to love my walking so
But now I walk with pain
And that takes much of the pleasure away-

I wonder if it will be pain for the rest of my life
Or whether somehow something will get me out of it.
