Settling the Score

It was inevitable
I had to come undone
to process the battles
I should have won
seeing now the price I paid
to become this woman
that trauma made
ill prepared to cope
numbing without care
this wretched disease
my cross to bear
a sense of resilience
motives are pure
fighting for survival
settling the score
