I used to live in gratitude
Until that fateful day When an accident some years ago Took most of my quality of life away I used to have a thirst for life And a fulfilling purpose every day I embraced and learned from both good and bad With whatever was tossed my way I used to have an active life Both professional and social in many a way But now I yearn and wait to die Since that fateful day I feel my life has no purpose Nor a quality of life Because since that fateful day Chronic pain has shrouded my " life" No one can fully understand Unless they have walked in my shoes So I try to battle my daily chronic pain That has given me anxiety and the blues What will finally help my pain Get to a manageable and tolerable state So I can try to pick up some of the pieces of my shattered life Since that fateful date....... |

Dearest Vintagewine,
Thank you for sharing your poem. It takes a lot of courage, I feel, to share openly about the deep challenges of living in chronic pain. I know I tend to get into denial about the severity, by finding a way to separate myself from the most severe pain. When we share honestly, we have to be present with the pain and mindful of the impact it has upon our daily lives, just as stated in your poem. I am very touched by your candid sharing. Much Love to you. With Admiration and Gratitude, DejaVu

Thanks very much for your kind and heartfelt replies.
Although I was told that writing can be somewhat cathartic, I still cry EVERY time I read it. I feel that all of you can understand and relate to what I wrote ; each in your own unique way. Have a blessed day |

Never a morning am I not visited by my ultimate time in PAIN
WE YOU I AND MANY MUST WALK HAND IN HAND TOGETHER AS ONE we understand how to wait for our days end Bitter sweet thought And a thought it shall stay I promised my family I will NOT take my life For in this horrible time of pain Faith that there are others who Will listen and WILL hold you us up when we are calling out "I can't take this anymore" PLEASE TAKE THE PAIN AWAY and as time passes and The Lord has me wake I am certainly not going to omit the idea he the father isn't done with me I am brought to my knees at times And when the pain is that great I say Dear Father your spirit lives in me Help me not to forget that That I we are still around because we may not be done yet A n d have work to do Or lessons to be learned This is what I hold on to along with the group of friends I can count on if I must Thank you for being a friend Love Me
