Oh-To Be Strong

Give me the Strength,
To face reality, without fear
To face the days, without self pity, anger or Poison
And to be strong, like a normal person should

Give me the patience
To cope with my family and friends
To cope with their unwanted sympathy and unintended rejection
And to be strong, like a normal person should

Give me the compassion
To forgive and make allowances for ignorance
To forgive the parasites, who sell false hopes for profit
And to be strong, like a normal person should

Give me the humility
To say thank, you, for help and support
To say thank you, for your time and patience
And to be strong, like a normal person should

Give me the nerves
To move my limbs; legs, feet, toes, arms
To move my muscles, hands, fingers or thumbs
And to be strong, like a normal person should

Give me the courage
To continue, to fight and live, with Multiple Sclerosis
To continue, to live in the hope, of a cure,
And to always remain positive

Oh; to be that normal person;
Oh I wish!
