Body on Fire

There’s a pain in my ribs pains in my feet a pain in one arm and pain causing heat My body’s on fire sunburnt it feels I sure do wish this Fibro would heal My legs are restless I am trying to sleep this pain radiating I don’t want to keep Pains penetrating inside and out the average person would scream and shout But no not I my spirit is strong this is my life so I push on Some days weaker I put up a fight most days exhausted like I am tonight The struggle is real and different each day I can only hope they’ll soon go away Until that day I live with the curse But try not to moan cause some have it worse.

That’s the trouble with growing older, you get a pain in the shoulder, in the arms and legs, hands and feet, in fact the outcome is dreadfully bleak… Beryl
