Discarded

I feel broken, incapacitated 
This Migraine Disease has stolen
So much time from my life
But also the relationships
So many cannot cope 
With someone with chronic pain
So we become unworthy
Slowly people lose touch
Or some create stories
To fit their agenda that
We don’t fit into anymore
We are not believed 
We are histrionic 
No one can have chronic pain that long
If we are lucky, we may have a few
Mostly our favorite Doctor, or a friend
That really truly get it but 
It’s few and far between
Our families cannot cope
Because were broken 
Unable to function in their world 
So what were left is the loneliness
Of chronic pain
Let alone the pain 
Our hearts are torn apart 
As we 
Become
Discarded.
