Suffering

I, like many in this world, may think life is hard at times, but do we really know what it is to suffer?
............................................................

You may have felt hungry
But have you ever felt hunger?

You may have felt lonely
But have you ever felt completely alone?

You may have felt sadness
But have you ever felt truly desperate?

You may have felt confusion
But have you ever felt totally lost?

You may have felt defeated
But have you ever felt like giving up?

You may have felt pain
But, do you really know what it is to suffer?
