You tell me Mr. Fibromyalgia

What is it you think you see,

You think you prey on the weak

But guess what you’re wrong, listen to what I speak

I never knew the strength I had before you

I’m sure for many of us that is true.

You beat me up and suck my energy dry

But guess what you aren’t going to make me cry.

I’ll get up again, I always do

I’m not one that likes to lose.

Maybe I can’t beat you but I’ll do the best I can

Hear me roar I am WOMAN!

I may not have a high tolerance for pain

But my pillow has not a tear stain.

I pull myself up everyday

I find strength in knowing I’m winning that way.

Sometimes I lay without the strength to stand,

But I have my fibro family to lend me a helping hand.

I will stay strong, I will survive,

You cannot take it, it is my life.

You tell me Mr. Fibromyalgia

What is it you think you see

You think you prey on the weak,

You can’t keep me quiet, listen to us speak!
