Temporary Pain

Temporary pain. In hindsight.
It came across as lasting dread.
Forever? Nah.

Defense mechanisms 
Save me from my sombre self -
Laughter or some cheerful expression.

Healing depression.
Enlightens me, self-directs.
This tune is about recollection.

Dulled voices and conversation,
Everything drifts from here to there,
Senseless sounds die.

Endless evenings,
Too much leisure, too much responsibility.
Cravings of bedtime.

There is no happy ending to this writing
Except that the expressions of pain 
Are temporary
And couched with a hint of optimism.
