Here's a little ditty, I wrote it myself! It's called "FIBRO"

I hurt all over, my brain is a mess,my legs don't work and some days I can't dress!

My hands and my fingers cannot do a lot, I drop things and break things and cannot hold a pot!

My legs and my feet will not let me explore, the places I went to, or the things I did before!

My bowel also suffers,but do you really want to go there?

I don't think you do, and it wouldn't be fair!

I have fibromyalgia, and these words are true, so thank your lucky stars, that its me and not you!!

Hi ninjananna, I love your ditty it made me laugh, but it's time for me to take my bath. I hope my legs will get me there, if not I will just have to stand and stare. My sleepless nights are causing trouble, my days are long and seeing double. I can only hope that things get better, I hope you like my little letter. x x.

I love you all for keeping my spirits up. As you know, sometimes it's hard. . .

Isn't it strange, sometimes the best laughs are on oneself?

i.e. graveyard humour

I'm not a poet, and I know it

Fenbadger I'm glad you liked it! I used to write poetry years ago when suffering from depression! Started again as I'm back in that dark place a lot of the time! Just helps to take my mind off things.. xx

Hey Cookie, thanks! I still have everything I wrote all those years ago as well. Got myself in a bit of a state this morning, I find it quite difficult trying to talk about whats going on! But on a good note I feel like I'm moving forward!! PIP are sending some forms to fill in and I have an appointment with CAB to help with those and my housing situation. Much love!...xxx

Hi ninjananna,

That is really good and it has also brought some more talent to light, which is great :-)

If you were to go over to the posting section you will find that there is a poetry corner there, so you can meet up with people of like minds and have some fun together creating poetry. - it's a good diversion :-) well done :-)

That really made me smile....very well put. It is important with the Fibronthat we humour ourselves, it helps u through the days. Funny enough I used to write poems as far back as when I was at school. U keep it going. Take good care! X
