Dónal Campbell
15 June 1996



Pain

If the words of love are expressed in song?
How then are the words of pain?
Is it for all times shrouded in silence?
If so what does society have to gain?
If one is abused is he not a victim?
Is he wrong to respond with violence?
Why does society shun the hurt?
What does this say to our children?
If one was to express their pain
Would it not make others embarrassed?
We should say what we feel
Shout to the world
We can become strong from our pain
We shall feel no longer embarrassed
Those of pain
Can only understand
But can never explain
