Nomenclature

Think you know my pain

Want to give it a name

Compare it yours

And say we’re the same

 

Hold it under a light

And tell me it’s okay

It’s perfectly normal

We all feel this way

 

My pain has no name

It has many sources

You won’t read about it

In psychology courses

 

I don’t need hear

A reason for the storm

I’m the one drowning

While you’re dry and warm

 

Wait on the shore

When I make it out

I’ll need a dry towel

And a friend with no doubt
