More than Pain
I feel broken and unfixable
I feel desperate to be free
Fighting my own existence,
that takes me to a place of broken dreams.
Robbed of my dreams, in a box of despair.
My body won't heal and my soul is broken with no repair.
No easy way out, no solution as I age.
This is the life that I am living,
with no happy ending, just pain.
I feel desperate to be free
Fighting my own existence,
that takes me to a place of broken dreams.
Robbed of my dreams, in a box of despair.
My body won't heal and my soul is broken with no repair.
No easy way out, no solution as I age.
This is the life that I am living,
with no happy ending, just pain.

Welcome to the Underground!! I've just recently started posting about my own illness, probably the first couple pages so I identify a lot. I hope you find DUP cathartic & refreshing!!

Great piece! Extremely relatable
very much reminded me of my parents who live life in pretty much constant physical pain and as you so perfectly put it "how much it takes away from you and the hopelessness we feel when there is no solution in sight."
Yup this is the feeling I feel radiating off my parents i literally get anxiety just thinking about the pain they're dealing with and how bad they feel
Great piece touched my soul👏👏

Great write and I empathize as dealing with pain can be both demotivating and demoralising. Anyone with Fybromyalgia, Heart Failure, Multiple Sclerosis, Cancer and various other life limiting conditions can and do feel that sense of helplessness and hopelessness. I feel the emotion in your ink. Best wishes. David

Very relatable and well said. To finding a "First Aid" station that fixes us up.
