I THINK M.E. IS A SIEVE ...

"They went to sea in a sieve, they did, In a sieve they went to sea" ... "The Jumblies" by Edward Lear

Dedicated To All My Dear M.E. Friends









I think M.E. is a sieve, a sieve ...
A sieve is like M.E ...

Relentless, restless leakage
Of each iota of energy ....

Trying to swerve exhaustion ...
Is like trying to turn the tide ...

Energy pours out of every pore ...
I just can't keep it inside ...

I don't quite know when it happened ...
That I became a giant sieve ...

But energy just start leaking ...
And something just had to give ...

I don't know if it will happen ...
That I can store energy again ...

I'm keeping everything crossed ...
I just hope it won't be in vain ...
