Vir almal met Lupus.🥀⚘️🌹
Lupus, the wolf that hides within,
A cunning foe, a secret sin,
Invisible to all but me,
A constant battle that none can see.
Its claws dig deep into my soul,
My body weakened, it takes its toll,
A fevered haze that clouds my mind,
An endless struggle to be kind.
My joints are swollen, my muscles ache,
The slightest movement, a sharp intake,
Of breath, as pain sears through my frame,
I fight on, my spirit aflame.
The sun, my enemy, I must shun,
Its rays can cause my lupus to run,
Rampant through my body, a cruel game,
A never-ending cycle of pain.
But I am strong, I will not yield,
To lupus, the wolf, I will not kneel,
I will fight on, with all my might,
And in the end, I will see the light.
For though lupus may be a part of me,
It does not define who I will be,
I am a warrior, a fighter true,
And with each battle, I will renew.
My spirit, my strength, my hope will grow,
And though lupus may come and go,
I will stand firm, I will not fall,
For I am more than lupus, after all.
