Poem - Life

[make a wish]

Not about fibro but the different stages we reach through our life:

I emerge from the dark comfort of my mother's womb,
to a bright fairy grotto filled with magic and wonderment.
What is this place?
I MUST EXPLORE

As I descend into life's sequence of caves
the route becomes increasingly slippery,
But my journey must go on.
I MUST SURVIVE

Deeper and deeper I travel
finding love, friendship, success, failure,
but most important of all, hope.
I MUST BELIEVE

With satisfaction and a sense of achievement
I reach the furthest point.
Is this the point of no return?
I MUST REFLECT

The walls close in on me,
forcing the air of life out of my body.
I fill with tiredness and sadness.
I MUST PERSEVERE

The deepest and darkest has now engulfed my mind
And as I fight to reach the eternal light
I regress to the fairy grotto of my childhood.


I think I am at the I MUST BELIEVE stage. I still have hope that one day soon there will be a so called "cure" for fibro. make a wish
