I Feel No Pain

Pain I give, I feel no pain
Pain I cause, again and again
Throw me a rock, don’t try pain
Love is painful, I don’t go that lane
’Cause, I feel no pain

Joy comes to me, but I can’t sustain
For it comes, after immense pain
It does not linger, it doesn’t remain
I’ve never cried in pouring rain
’Cause, I feel no pain

Never been bound by a chain
Always been, the first to complain
No matter what I do, I only give pain
I’ve never had feelings to refrain
’Cause, I feel no pain

It’s me, myself and I, that I entertain
I don’t fuss over emotions inane
I see the world as it is, it’s mundane
I’ve never torn letters to throw in the drain
’Cause, I feel no pain

I divest myself of all that is humane
I worship only the most profane
Unfulfilled desires cause a lot of pain
No desire of mine has ever been slain
’Cause, I feel no pain

Sleepless nights, I’ve kept away in disdain
Teary eyed, in my bed, I’ve never lain
My throat’s never choked, pain did not reign
Fists never clenched, that to self loathing pertain
’Cause, I feel no pain

I feel no pain

Pain I give, I feel no pain
Pain I cause, again and again
Throw me a rock, don’t try pain
Love is painful, I don’t go that lane
’Cause, I feel no pain

Love the rhyme structure!! I've seen it for the first time in here - is that right, or am I missing something?

Really love it, "a-a-a-a". Haaah, nice!!

And
I divest myself of all that is humane
I worship only the most profane

Awesome. Simply awesome.

@Rohit
It'd be, given our new found similarities :)

@Amiya
You're right, tried it for the first time. Don't know why I missed out on this one till now. I love experimenting with rhyme schemes in general.
