Misery (Fibromyalgia)

Misery,

And pain,

That is the world,

I live in,

Constantly,

Fibromyalgia,

Is to blame,

It feels like,

A constant,

Pounding,

All over,

My body,

Which makes,

Me extremely,

Fatigued,

Sensitive to pain,

And even sensitive,

To other people’s touch,

My whole,

Body,

Can feel stiff,

To move,

Which,

Makes,

Sleep difficult,

I can get,

Burning sensations,

I can’t regulate,

My body temperature,

Like everyone else,

Living,

With this,

Has caused mental health,

Problems,

Mainly depression,

The fibro-fog,

Is the worse,

I suddenly forget,

What I was doing,

Or why I was going,

To the shop,

I can’t concentrate,

On most things,

I can experience,

Headaches,

For me,

It’s caused dietary,

Issues,

But others,

Can experience,

IBS,

The flare-ups,

Cause,

Everything,

To hurt,

Twice,

Maybe even,

A hundred,

Times worse,

Than before,

Which,

Can leave,

Me bed bound,

For days,

Maybe weeks,

At a time,

There,

Is no cure,

For this misery,

But there are treatments,

To help,

And maybe,

Relieve,

Some of the symptoms,

Such as antidepressants,

Painkillers,

Even counselling,

Exercise,

Can help,

But I can’t always,

Manage it,

Sometimes,

I even push,

Myself too far,

And I end up,

Being back,

In pain,

One day,

I hope,

There will be a cure,

Or something,

That can take this,

Misery,

Away,

Forever
