Productive Pain

Everything brings pain,
Never one loss without some gain,
The gray sky cries to release rain,
The gorgeous moon waxes and then wanes.

The artist is painting with pain,
Patches of dimensions on an illusive plain,
Pouring themself a glass of golden champagne,
Celebrating every shade of productive pain.
