Multiple Sclerosis


 

 
Making the time
Understanding the pain
Learning a little each day
Time is everything
In case we lose it all
Playing with time
Lying to yourself
Endearing oneself to death.

Sighing with exhaustion
Crying tears of sadness
Loss of memories
Erosion of time
Righteous anger
Operating on fumes
Saying you're OK
Intend to make every moment count
Saying you're NOT OK.

MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS.

Note:

This is another poem about my MS like symptoms.

Basically, I'm seeing a neuro in May. I'm not expecting good news. I have been dxed with Peripheral Neuropathy a long **** time ago. But now I have double visions, weakness, numbness on side from time to time, and ****ty cognitive symptoms. Oh and incontinence (so embarrassing). No matter what the news is, it's not exactly stellar. This is how I keep mental control.

Hello, my name is Anne-Marie. Welcome to my profile. I like to think of myself as a writer and advocate for mental health and invisible illnesses. Part of me struggles with my faith on a daily basis because of my sexual orientation. So a lot of my poetry is about coping with that and my health on a day-to-day basis. I don't define myself with my sexual orientation or my health struggles but they are a part of me; there's no denying that. I love to write dark science fiction about dystopic futuristic landscapes. I like to write strong female leads with a lot of emotion and feeling to them. I truly live, breathe, and enjoy writing. Thank you for reading this
