Pain Cleanses Me Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Pain Cleanses Me



Believing that I am thought of as good,
Hearing that people speak of me as good,
And seeing that they want me to be good,
I myself drift to being really good
From my being pretentiously good.
Who knows the amount of pain I undergo
To keep me afloat not to retrieve,
And make me the great I had not been.

That's rather philosophical argument, imagine this goodness was there all the time and pain was caused by devil within, who saw himself as a failure!
