HEROES
HEROES
Dedicated To All My Dear M.E Friends .... And The Good Man ...
Someone said to me: "Your husband's a hero ...
I knew that already
,

I don't disagree ...
Not all heroes wear leotards and capes
...

And he cares, heroically,
For me, with M.E.
But we with M.E. are also heroes ...
Dragging ourselves through each/every day ...
We are possessed of Super Super-Powers ....
It has to be said ...
So I need to say
...

Struggling with a now-wobbly body ...
Battling constant exhaustion and pain ...
Fighting with brain-fog and all that entails
...

Trying to deal with a now-wonky brain ...
So, my friends, next time you look in the mirror ...
Look carefully at the reflection in there ...
Because, you are looking at ...
A Super-Hero...

And don't you forget that ...
Do you hear??
Don't you dare!!
