Take a look in my eyes
can you see the sorrow mixed with
frustration?
the sadness of losing everyday ability
the impotence, frustration of being
betrayed by your own body
being told your disease is terminal, that
right there defines the feeling of despair
Every passing day hope vanishes
the desire of finding a cure to this
disease before it finishes me is getting
further away
Never will I ever be a positive person
I'm a realist
and the reality of my life is terminal
This disease is called Friedreich's Ataxia
the advantage, I would say is that this
disease is slow
And it doesn't affect my cognitive
function
but damn, sometimes, just sometimes I
wish I didn't have cognitive function
Overpowered with depression
I wake up and don't even feel like getting
out of bed
hopeless, worthless
my first thought is "what's the point?"
Endless worries about the future I might not
even have
the unknown, the inevitable
Surgeries are low key my favorite
why?
because I'm doped up; I'm numb
Death is my contemplation
my eyes become bloodshot
I been crying too much
giving myself a migraine
Open sore I am
I feel that salt with water is being poured
on me
I "hope" I heal soon
Where is God?
does he want the devil to end me?
can he see I'm dying in the inside?
does he know I'm not living, I'm just
alive?
does he enjoy my suffering?
Nobody can see my profound emotional
issues
