Normal Results - A Poem

|Lacey

Test come back “normal” or stabilizing.
I feel just as ill and and it’s traumatizing.
Tears streaming down my face,
Just purely stuck in this place.

How in the world can this be?
There IS something wrong with me.
Stuck with nothing to do.
Don’t want to be a burden to you.

Can never do enough
Wanting to show I am tough
Feeling so down and out
But still searching for clout

My heart, it just hurts
These big feelings are a curse
Search and wait some more
Still no movement, closed door

My heart, it just hurts.
Owning I’m the worst.
Will this be my life?
A terrible mother and wife?

Platitudes and Toxic Positivity
Just so cliche of me
I have no more to give
Every day a fight, just to live

Wish I had something wise to say,
Just continue to hope in a new day.
