Deep Thoughts...sometimes

Just a blurb on living with Lyme Disease

When life leaves us feeling lost and the losses are so personal, they come at a much higher cost.

You feel as if your personality has been banished..Ordered away..never to return..left In the dust..

Somewhere between who We were and who We will be..STUCK.

Some don’t understand...although they think they might.

Others walk away withought a fight.

This limbo is not dancing under a stick, it is the other kind of limbo, the one more like purgatory caused by a tick.

What is most difficult is being alive and awake during this plight and watching the memories pass by faster than the speed if light.

The real emotions take you on a wild ride

And the conjured ones suck you under the tide.

You can challange the current with all your might. But honey, the sea is always gonna win that fight.

The more you fight the harder she pulls

Whipping and sucking you under into the darkest night.

Don't fight what you cannot see..sometimes

losin is winnin if you want to be free.

Always remember to be aware, for this is the key...

What you cannot see will bring you to your knees.

Understand that She will not be disrespected. Respect is a must.

The current will suck you deep down if you are on the cusp.

Do not fight the tide, for she is rough..

instead be flexible and respect her .. to earn her trust.
