Stop hurting me please, I can’t take anymore!
Ok so I’ve been having fun trying something I’ve not done before .
I should’ve known you’d respond this way,
I just wanted to feel normal why’s that not ok ?
How long are you going to punish me for having some fun ,
Body and spirit broken, you are such a cruel one.
Just lying here trying to sleep as you go in for the attack,
I have nowhere to go, I’m powerless, I lay here, eyes leaking, on my back .
When you have a chronic illness that causes you pain ,
The nights are so long that they drive you insane.
