THE MYSTERY OF PAIN
Pain has an element of blank;
It cannot recollect
When it began, or if there were
A day when it was not.
It has no future but itself,
It's infinite realms contain
It's past, enlightened to perceive
New periods of pain.
-Emily Dickinson

(This is one of my favourite poems, from one of my favourite poets...Emily Dickinson. She had an incredible way with words and her insights on life are exceptional.)
