PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

my body is tired

my spirit too

it feels like a shell

i don't care if i feed it

aches and pains

no energy

to uplift others

even walking

strains me

i used to have pride

in yoga

with what my body could do

now i just want to hide

in bed

with all the ways it's failed me

i feel locked inside my days of the week pill box

i want a life like everyone else's

but if this is what i need, to feel better

then maybe these are just my cards

whether i like the hand or not
