chronic pain

Drowning in a crippling sensation of hell,
hoping for the toll of the bell,
for that means infinite rest…
If only.
The stabbing pain on the side,
desperately attempting to hide,
The pain within me
It coils within and within
Where am I now?
It hurts, it hurts so
The pain is clouding my thoughts.
Where am I now?
Where am I to go?
I feel so lost and yet
The true tragedy is thatonly one of us ever has control over the vocal cords.

I said goodbye to my old life
I said goodbye to my mind
I said goodbye to my body
I said goodbye to a day without pain.
Chronic illness, a storyline in dramatic televsion
Something your grandparents have
"I can’t do homework.Now, you probably think I’m wrong, right?
You want to make right this wrong in my mind that makes me say… “can’t”.
Can’t do this
Can’t do that
Every day, every hour, every minute, every second
It follows me
It surrounds me when I wake up
It follows me throughout the day
It haunts me at night
My mind is distracted by it
Being diagnosed was tough
Being unknown was worse.
From here it can only get better,
with the right tools and a little good luck.
Optimism will be my guide.
This will be with me
forever
the first thing you should know is that I know you didn't plan for your life to be this way.
you were not a child who dreamt of life trapped in the four mint colored walls of a hospital room.
