A Write to Overcome!




 A WRITE TO OVERCOME! *


An all encompassing hollow ache
resonates with nauseating discomfort;
both mind and body scream aloud,
enforcing tears upon an erstwhile stoic frame.

No knowledge can determine
whether these tears, yelled expletives
or vocalized profanities,
none of which were hoped for,

can proffer relief. The question stands
unanswered, by any reasoned response,
how best to cope with the inexplicable,
opioid defying, prolonged aching pain;

there is no where
or way to turn,
one simply endures
until the next reprieve.

*also a RITE and/or a RIGHT but firstly the WRITE is for a purpose
