Survive The Pain Poem by Barry Middleton
Survive The Pain
desire cannot be overcome
regardless of enlightenment
it can only be survived
I want one more painless year
to defeat one more storm
to die in a just world
and yet I will survive the pain
to cast a feeble vote for peace
and feel the sun on my face
desire cannot be overcome
need cannot bring lasting love
a wish cannot stave off death
Sadly the only guarantee in life is death..and it will come to us all....another lovely write Barry. Annette
Thanks Annette, I appreciate your reading and commenting. Accepting these realities is difficult but also freeing in the moments when it can be accomplished.

Life is too short to do things you wand, but sometimes a single moment to which the poem refers is a whole eternity to be felt.
Thanks. That is all we ever really get - a moment of sunshine.
