Pain reduction
My dearest friend
I see your pain
Digging deep into that pit
Of despair you cannot escape
Words offer little comfort
To a heart that is raging
These are not just words
They are recognition
We are never far apart
When love is held
So hold on tight
Take your time
You may be battered
But you are not broken
And if you must bury yourself
Bury yourself in this friendship
That comes from me to you
Because I see you
Standing stronger than the storm
Leaving the past behind
~ Camille
“Pain reduction” is a hand held out in the dark — a poem of recognition, friendship, and steady love when words alone can’t fix what hurts.
Printed in vibrant red ink on earthy oatmeal-toned recycled paper, this piece offers a quiet shelter — a reminder that you can be battered and still unbroken, and that being seen is sometimes the first way back.
