When Your Body Betrays You

When your body betrays you 
For many years we’ve been as one
The mind, body and soul
But as of late we’re separate
Each one of us damaged and down

Betrayed we are by our own selves
The mind to process agony
The body’s been dealt fierce and vicious harm
From a foe invisible yet violent all the same

The body has endured the pain 
The soul has felt it too
So deep the hurt the body screams
in tears it pours, resolution gone

lastly where the soul has fallen
begging on bended knee
pray the torture go away
Dystonia be it’s name

Lorraine Traylor, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
