I'm Scared.

I've always known pain,

But there was always another lane.

Now I can't move well,

Yet that's not my hell.

I can't stand the looks of pity,

Whether in town or the hospital in the city.

Noone had the answer for me, 

And all assumed what it could be.

Somedays I couldn't move,

This pain words couldn't sooth.

Once we had the truth,

My feelings went through the roof.

Never again can I be the same,

Days where my limbs become lame. 

Pain comes and goes,

Between a constant pain and sudden hits like water from a hose.

There may never be a day where I feel okay,

Or able to keep my demons at bay. 

Still, I was given this for a reason.

While things will change with each passing season,

I know that this fight won't be easy, but we all have to fight.

Something that I'll do with all my might-

Ignoring my fear with every step.
