Disease

Where do you run?
Where do you go?
What are you supposed to do?
When you are killing yourself
Inside out
I know I can win
I can beat my body
But I am not safe
In my own skin
Please body, please
Don’t let me down today
Not today
Will I be weak?
Is death in three years?
Or three days?
You take away my hair
You steal my freedom
You seize my innocence
And possibly my future
But you cannot take my hope
I have faith
But inside my failing body
I wonder silently
How can they rescue me
From myself?

I disliked the begining and end, but the middle had me going.

Interesting take on pain. I fully enjoy the misery you portray. It's sickly attractive to me. Congrats Teal.
