Dear pain, how have you been?
It's been a long time since we’ve last talked

I saw a boy in crutches
I saw a girl in a cast

Keeping busy, I see
Never stay too long though, luckily

Breaking hearts? Obviously
Not just a physical entity

Dear pain, been a while
Please don't come visit, you need only wright

I'm busy too, if you can't already tell
Writing of monsters and fairies and the Kings goblins hail

Tired and stressed
Sad not depressed

Days drag on like a boat upstream
And I’ve had no rest, not even a dream

And between you and me, you know what I think?
You’ve had way too much coffee to drink.
