Venting- Endometriosis pain

Woke up this morning 
 
Thinking I’d had a good sleep 
 
Looking back on it, I had 
 
However, my body was saying something else 
 
Pain began to tear through my body 
 
As I resumed my usual foetal position 
 
30 minutes passed, nothing was changing 
 
Practically dragging myself out of bed 
 
Slumping downstairs for a sleepy cup of tea 

My legs started throbbing and aching
 
My back began to seize up 
 
My body felt as if I was being crushed 
 
My chest felt as if it were chained up 
 
It was becoming increasingly difficult to breathe 

My anxiety started to perk up 
 
I felt myself on the brink of a meltdown 
 
Shutting myself away to gain composure 
 
I actually started my day 
 
Most of my plans have fallen through due to pain 
 
So, I’m making myself take it easy 
 
Hence why I’m writing this  
 
As a way to vent without bothering people 
 
Sitting on my bed 
 
With a hot water bottle attached to me 
 
I have officially had enough of this day already 
 
My body wants to sulk in bed 
 
My brain wants to be busy 
 
Chucking tablets down my throat 
 
I swallow all my complaints and issues 
 
As I try to mull along 
 
I know in the back of my head 
 
That I'll be okay 
 
At the end of the day

I always find a way
 
I’ll figure it all out one day 
 
I’ll be able to truly say 
 
“I’m okay”
