A chance to know me better
I have been really ill the last 3 days and have been curled up in pain because I was having a flare up with my fybromyalgia. I wrote a poem so that anyone that doesn't know what the illness does to some ones body may get an idea from my poem.
Every day I'm searching all the time,
To find a pain free moment that I can claim as mine,
A moment that I can't feel the pain,
A moment that fibromyalgia cannot claim.
As I drift off to sleep after hours of pain
To a land that I'm free of anguish and pain,
To a place that I feel myself once again.
To a world where I can go and dance in the rain,
For in this world I can do what comes free
I can hop, skip and jump for hours on end.
I can stand, walk and run and dance with my friends.
For this world is free from all my pain,
In this world the pain can't drive me insane.
I feel your pain, as I live with MS. There will be better days.
