Sick

Test...after test...I can no longer rest easy knowing my body is deteriorating from the inside out.
I have shamed myself by denying the fact and I now feel twice the pain with unreasonable doubt.
If I could somehow muster up the strength to mentally digress far from this truth...
I might be able to live again with peace, as I once did in my splendid youth.
Unfortunately, that could never be enough.
It has made a home inside of me...
Eviction is impossible...the only remedy is to be or try to be tough.
I have no hands to hold, but my own...so when the time comes, I have plans to fold and lie beneath a name etched in stone.
