Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Out of Myself, into Myself (poem)

I'm sitting here passing the day
Not getting anything done
Can't even seem to go out
And get myself something fun

My body feels out of sorts
My mind feels like a broken wind chime
Trying so hard to make some noise and be heard
But nothing comes out, not a whispered word

I've felt this way for days now it seems
And I wonder if I'll ever be able to break free
Go outside and climb the trees
Well, at least get over my fear of stinging bees

First I have to feel a sign of life
In this numbing out body of mine
My soul's gone to sleep
Can You help me please wake it up

You know I don't like to give up.....

I almost seems like giving up
Would be a great way to make it all stop
But then I'd never get to feel all the good
And the abusers would win, yes they would

So I'm calling out to You now
I can't make it alone anyhow
Give me a voice and help me make the right choice
To stick it out no matter how

I'm surviving today
Let tomorrow be a brighter way
Where I live life
Without having to fight

I can't take it much longer
Like a caged pretty bird
I have to get out
Out of myself

But I know just what You want
For me to just love myself
So help me get out
And into Myself
