Part of me…

I wake up in cold sweats, never can make it through the night. Every day I want to give up, but I know I have to fight. Chest pains, shortness of breath. One day I’m happy the next I’m contemplating death. Went from class clown to feeling like I might drown. I can’t stop running because I feel the darkness breathing down my back. Everyone tells me how great my life is and all I think about what I lack. Can tell my friends because they might think I’m crazy, mom say I sleep all day because I’m lazy. I have a disease that has no cure. So when I give you my love just know it’s pure. I live in the moment because I don’t know what tomorrow can be. I wrote this today Monday 9/30/19 at 10:14pm so you can know a part of me.
