Looking at me
I look healthy and fine
But you don’t understand the pain
I live with in the inside
The burning
The flare ups
The constant battle of pain
I wish I had a day without this battle
I would not take it in vane

Just because I look ok on the outside
Doesn’t mean I’m ok inside
But that doesn’t define me
I take the day and pain
One step at a time...
My sister has this and it’s a constant battle. Everyone looks at her and thinks she’s fine... she puts on a mask and hides the pain... don’t judge someone for you never know what their battling everyday.
