It’s not the best of friends

To live with MS

When the phone

Goes flying through the air

Or a knife drops

Down on my toes and I bleed

It’s not the best of friends

To live with MS

When I barely get my

breakfast and fall asleep again

Or when out walking

And walk like a drunk without the alcohol

It’s not the best of friends

To live with MS

When my hand

Feel stuck in a closed doorway

Or when I am so dizzy

I can barely stand on my feet

It’s not the best of friends

To live with MS

When I eat and

All I taste is paper in my mouth

Or my thoughts

Go all in chaos in my mind

It’s not the best of friends

To live with MS

When I lost my voice

And couldn’t talk to anyone

Or I stand stuck on

Same spot for ages and can’t move

It’s not the best of friends

To live with MS

When all it does

Is being in my way

Or stop me

From living life like I want to

It’s not the best of friends

To live with MS

It is just a friend

One have to adjust

To live with…

Thanks to MS it

Gives me days in the sun

So I get valuable D-vitamins

So I can live longer

And have better days

Living with you

Stuck in my body
