Isle
i don't even know if i have a story to tell
a story anyone cares to hear
but what i do know
is
i've felt, currently feel, sometimes don't feel at all,
like an island.
not a cancer island,
that is obviously already heavily populated.
an ACC island?
maybe?
a 34 year old with ACC?
maybe even more?
but when i read about the spasms, the contorting pain that doubles you over and claims your breath,
i feel connected.
i feel less alone.
how does pain bring us together?
the fatigue, no appetite, weight loss, scans, sweat soaked sheets.
suddenly
we are on that island
together
