Forgotten Pain
By: Alex Scofi

And don't forget about Pain.

when he's forgotten,

pain transforms.

He gets loud and upset.

Oh man does he get angry...

He screams, shouts, and yells.

He can get violent too

He's cruel,

Spiteful even,

Just plain mean…

Pain is really scary when he's forgotten.

He doesn't treat anyone good.

Especially those he loves.

In fact,

Pain usually treats them the worst.

I've never been so scared as to that time that I saw forgotten Pain shout.

To this day, I can still remember

How loud he was,

How red his face got,

How out of breath he was,

How large he was

And how tiny all of us became.

How he could be set off at

any

little

thing

.

Pain gets quiet too.

When he was quiet though,

I think that was more frightening.
