Broken But Surviving

...." Broken But Surviving " .....


Inside a body that's broken and torn ,
Living a life that's empty and forlorn,
A daily  battle  of constant pain ,
Making my body take the strain ,


Arm hanging low,and barely walking ,
Tired and stuttering when ones talking , 
And each step makes me flinch , 
As I push myself inch by inch , 


There is no cure, no escape ,
No miracle, or a superheroes cape,
This broken body is all you got, 
It won't get better, that's your lot,


Not easy holding   on to every word,
Trying to take in what you've  heard ,
Not easy when it sounds like the end game ,
The words going round driving you insane ,


But you got to keep going to prove them wrong ,
Keeping it real, not asking how long ,
For no matter what surviving  is a  must ,
Until ashes to ashes and dust to dust ....
