Sometimes I wonder, how I will make it alone, When all those in my life have refused to see what I have always shown? The fact that I am ill, yes indeed it is true, A mental illness chains me, physical illnesses too. Depression has been a friend, for as long as I know, Panic and anxiety, do you even need to be told? Am I paranoid? Or is that what you want me to think? In the next minute, I am dissociated, or cannot think. I am over here and over there, "Hello!" or "Goodbye", What is seriously wrong with my mind? Friends, they stay a distance, and I don't need them anyways, Family? Forget it... I lie and I lie. I pretend that I feel nothing, Nothing touches me, But truth be told I am terrfied, My heart, as if, bleeds. Perhaps you've heard of Fibro, Or IBS as well, Maybe you know Chronic pain, And a fatigue like hell. Maybe your are familar with being in constant pain, Maybe you know all the pills, over and over again. "How can it be hard to get out of bed?" "How hard can it be to ignore what's in your head?" You won't understand, even though I've tried, No I'm not special, especially when I'm chained to a bed. I've been told I am older now, "Hurry up and get a job", "You will be nothing when you get started and move on." "Can't you just stop whining? Grow up and live life? Can you just do something rather than sleeping and wasting time?" "You worry about this, you cry about that, you want this but don't even try to relax." "You are doing nothing but sitting around, So what if you are sick? We all are, all year round." I am the lazy, the black sheep the failure, The worthless, dissapointment, the immature. "I am the would have been, could have been, should have been, never was and never ever will be", Did I really just quote a song? Indeed, I've felt what they really mean. I am weak or stubborn, Ms. "why" and "Okay but how come?" Believe me, there is no look or answer I've been given, that I have not sawn. There is help out there, there are programs and places to go, But who would want to love someone who struggles to get up and go? Who may be sick for the rest of their lives, Who doesn't even feel worthy of time? People do what they have to, to go off and survive, But the next time you want to go and ridicule someone, Please know, they try...

Not only the racers in competition but there are also racers , In the competition of life we compete for happiness and sometimes the losers get awarded with sadness, We compete for sucess and pleasure and sometimes the losers get failure and gloom but this game has no winners either losers   the game of the life is a tie we all get happiness we all become sad we get success we even fail but there is no one who had never gone through any particular section in this , we all are winners at the same time loosers so never feel bad if you are loosing because as this life is a draw competition you will also win at the same time we can even fail

racers
Without father, without mother, I grew up, running wild and free. Mountains I conquered, cities I build; In a strange land, I've now arrived. Your light was brighter than the sun, Your hushed whispers, overwhelmed the Sirens. I'm tempted, I followed and I fell; In a strange land, I'm now enslaved.
