For all my fellow buddies really struggling today.


[Fa...]

Recommended Posts

Pain goes deeper

Fears running high

Everyday I question

Whether I will survive

 

Holding onto something

That I have yet to see

In the end I know it's coming

Someday I'll be free

 

When you can't take anymore

You take more anyways

There is no other way out

Of this long and torturous maze

 

Body feeling broken

No putting my mind at ease

I call out for any small relief

Sobbing on my knees

 

Someday we will have it all

All that we once had

Will return just like it never left

The good will replace the bad

 

Hang on fellow fighters

Let time sort it out

Right now we are bent and troubled

But healing will come about

 

This will not be for nothing

This will not take us down

We will walk out of this hand in hand

And for that we will be proud

 

Do whatever it takes

To endure the pain and sorrow

Darkness doesn't last

It will fade with each tomorrow

 

We all deserve so much more

Than what is offered to us now

Please don't give up fighting

We all make it through somehow

 

Strength and determination

Are all that we must find

The war is raging on for us

One battle at a time

 

We each have our own journey

But we all know how it feels

No matter how horrific it gets

Time is the thing that heals

 

It's so damn hard just waiting

Not knowing what's in store

But someday it will be worth it

When we are ourselves once more

 

You must go through hell sometimes

To come out the other side

So for now just hang on

And know there is an end to this ride

 

A temporary distortion

Just a glitch along the way

Life becomes worth living again

At least that's what they say

 

So hold on and keep going

Fight another day

Eventually we will see the light

No price left for us to pay

 

What a glorious moment

When we begin to prevail

I will join with you all

We won't let each other fail

 

Don't believe your worries

The symptoms are just lying

Even though it feels like it

We are just healing not dying

 

I struggle but never fall

Walking outside of reality

But underneath it all

I'm still me.

 

Love to you all

❤️❤️❤️

Thank you so much for this lovely poem Faery23.  It gave me a lift today.  YES underneath it all, we are all still us.  Great message.

No need to apologize, Faery.  I was just hoping you were doing better by not appearing to be on the forum for awhile, but by your most recent blog post, I see that is not the case. :-[

 

Thank you for always being a sweet friend going way back to the early days of me being a member here.

 

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

P.S.  Reposting your poem as my last comment buried it from the previous page, so others can appreciate on this page too.

That last poem really says it all Faery - all of it so true.  I’m sure our old selves will emerge from the ruins of this thing one day - it’s just so hard to imagine that when you’re in the thick of it! :'(

 

I wish we could all meet each other in real life and keep each other going then rejoice together once we’re through it all :).
