Pain

Pain stumbling alike novice
Exhibiting itself in eyes
Pain running smoothly
Stealing each fall and rise
Pain making dumb-founded speak
Pain making speaker dumb-founded
Pain treasuring into memory
Pain- a memory untreasured
Pain getting stronger on exploration-
Pain alleviating itself on perforation
Pain- a hungry volcano
Pain- a thirsty cataract
Pain –When a baby is born
Pain – when a man dies
Pain – When Journey commences
Pain – When Journey reaches to ultimate goal

………………………….
Being all drenched in pain
Is something like an aroma
Or a pleasant rain
Being all drenched in pain means
To live in draught
Without rain!

Go and ask this question to Shelley, Rajkamal Chaudhry, and other poets of protest also put the question to your ownself.
I think Pain is not only personified but also, similized, metaphorised, and demystified to some extent.
It is better if we question the self rather than the poet.
If life is full of paradoxes, then both pain and pleasures have no validity at all.
