UNWANTED (a poem about MS)

UNWANTED
You came in and took over
No one asked you to
You are unwanted

You cause the room to spin You bring me to my knees
You are unwanted

You slow my mind almost to a halt
You make the words hard to say
You are unwanted

You crash parties
You make it difficult to do anything
You are unwanted

You make me exhausted
You make my bed my safe haven
You are unwanted

You blur my vision
You numb different parts of me
You are unwanted

You make my ears hurt
You make it hard to hear
You are unwanted

You make my legs feel like jello
You make my hands shake
You are unwanted

You make heat my enemy
You make fun only a memory that is quickly fading
You are unwanted

You make me miserable
You took my life many years ago
You are unwanted

You are Multiple Sclerosis
And I hate you
You are unwanted
