The Difference With Diabetes

Look at me, what do u see? Someone happy? Someone carefree. .But sometimes if u look closer what can u find? An emotional wreck with a poor state of mind. From the outside i may look healthy and glowing but who sees the injection sights, the bruising and lumps that are growing? My fingers are numb from endless blood tests, and who understands sometimes I just need to rest?. For 12 years now ive lived with diabetes by my side, the most invaluable journey and biggest rollercoaster ride. I've been up, ive been down, I've been scared and now im proud!! There's no stopping me, im ready to talk about it out loud. Its with me forever, always here to stay. so lets make a difference starting with today x

But, for the mean time, I will greet you with the same smile, other poets passed when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your poems. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you like.
