Gentle blade,
so slowly you stab.
Dull, constant
You will never leave me.
Years we've grown
together,
knowing each other more deeply.
Then the rasping,
scraping.
Oh blood, you're new.
But not for long.
Intermittently,
Pain dons new garb.
Dressing up for a special night,
in waves of roiling thunder.
Old friend, I wouldn't be sorry to see you go.
so slowly you stab.
Dull, constant
You will never leave me.
Years we've grown
together,
knowing each other more deeply.
Then the rasping,
scraping.
Oh blood, you're new.
But not for long.
Intermittently,
Pain dons new garb.
Dressing up for a special night,
in waves of roiling thunder.
Old friend, I wouldn't be sorry to see you go.
I've been dealing with a lot of changes, good and bad, in my life lately. This is the biggest source of negative stress right now. I was diagnosed a year ago with ulcerative colitis, and I've been having a really rough time of it this year. This describes, somewhat, how I've felt for the years I've been fighting this disease and never knew what it was. It's an embarrassing, painful and exhausting situation that feels like it'll never get better. It may, and it may not, but I had to put something out into the world of words about it.

I can understand you, I'm diagnosed was two and half years with UC (pancolitis) and my life is being so hard and sad too.
Hope you feel better.
