I will learn
I will grow
I will arm myself with
Everything I need to know
I won’t give up
I won’t give in
You will not be
A permanent thing
I won’t let you
Define me
You won’t rule
My life
But for now
I forgive myself
For giving in to
Your painful stealth
I accept you
Are real for me
In the moments
You show your face
I accept you
As an adversary
That I can beat by
Facing adversity
You will not
Take the throne
Ruling my life
Which is only my own
You will not
Take my peace
Fibromyalgia
It is you I release
