Enough!

Enough!

pain...
like electricity
shooting through
to nerve endings
pulsating,
insideous and raw
until all I can think of is
pain...
joints on fire
from shoulder to finger tips,
back to hips
to knees!
these target areas
blaze in agony
fibromyalgia
and psoriatic arthritis...
when is it enough!???

thanks Teddy,

by bedtime I am almost in tears...I'm too darned mean to cry, lol. on top of it, I am an amnesiac! but a sleeping pill helps. and Steve reads to me every night. that relaxes me. I'm almost human by morning. thank you for being you!

I use meditation and self-hypnosis, when I can get past the pain and concentrate, it isn't easy, tho. would love to read your secret recipe! thanks!
