Hypothyroidism

HYPOTHYROIDISM

 

My name is Hypothyroidism

I look like a butterfly in your neck

Despite the beauty butterflies have, I can wreak havoc.

I control every aspect of your body

So don’t plan on ignoring me

 

Do you want to challenge me?

Do you want to feel the emotions I can put over you?

Challenge me, I dare you, I will destroy you

 

Challenge accepted,

You are in for it

What will happen when you can’t control it?

Let me explain the things I could do to you

The death feelings I can bring over you

 

Feel the dryness to your skin?

I’ll make it crack, red, and burn like fire

See the clumps of hair that seems to come out?

I’ll make your hair thin and dry despite your desire

 

Think sleep is harmless?

Guess again,

I’ll make you sleep until you never wake again

Acoma is my cousin,

And he has my back

So you better treat me right or else Acoma will attack

 

Do I have your attention now?

Does this all sound familiar?

It probably doesn’t because I wont let you remember

Memory loss is one of my favorites

So no matter how much you try, I will make you forget

 

Are you feeling miserable, emotional, and depressed?

I’ll make your world feel like it’s the end

Despite all the support you may have

I’ll end up being you’re only friend

 

I know what you are thinking,

You don’t want to feel this way

Well despite my bad habits

I can make these feelings go away

 

The meds help tame me

They control me

You wont feel like this way again once you provide them to me

 

Let me just leave you on one last note

Remember if you forget I will be there to wreak havoc.

My name is hypothyroidism
