Silent War - Endometriosis

Summerjune15

Endometriosis is like barbed wire wraps around my soul tightening pulling taking control It coils around my ovaries each day the bar wire it cuts each month losing cups of blood the pain flows through my belly to my back to my legs where the pain stops me from walking properly I scream but no one hears the world moves on but I stand still trapped in my body I feel lonely lost and I cry behind close a shadow that follows me is that a monster no it’s my endometriosis but endometriosis is the monster in my eyes the barbwire digs and tightens whilst I bleed dreaming about breaking free
I fight alone with no one near a silent war battling depression I wish I could have peace and find a release for the wire’s grip to finally stop but still I stand though bruised a soul that’s scarred yet never lived without crippling pain but even in the darkest night I hold on to what’s left of light my future dreams the pain may stay but I will rise and find my way through all the loneliness through all the fear I’ll find my voice and I’ll still be here fighting the battle of endometriosis

@Summerjune15 Firstly I'd just like to say your way with words is beautiful but I’m really sorry you're going through this pain. Endometriosis can be such a difficult and painful condition to deal with, both physically and emotionally. It’s completely understandable if you’re feeling frustrated, exhausted, or overwhelmed. The pain and challenges you're facing are real, and it’s okay to give yourself grace and patience during tough days. You don’t have to face this alone—your experience matters, and there are people who want to help and support you however they can. Remember, it’s okay to take time for yourself and seek the care or comfort you need, and you deserve to feel heard and supported throughout this journey.
