By analysing pain we should know why we hurt, a dull longing for someone is the worst of pains. Once we find out why we hurt it would be nice if it just got up and left. We should however not attach to pain, and must try to live each moment as they come. Karin I loved your poem you wrote so sensitively about your distant ache. Bob

I was touched by 'a faraway pain like a bird that alights on my hand'. Your exploration of pain is sensitively conveyed and and without it a hole is left, as if you deserve to have no release. A vast subject to write about, and beautifully written. 10 love Karin

A fine observation. Yes, why do we? But your poem has normalized it harmonically.
