I Am More Than Fibro

I am more than fibro…
     I am more than the pain…
          I am more than the lows…
               I am more than the strain!


I am a survivor…
     I am a loving heart…
          I am a strong striver…
               I am a work of art!


I will not bow to doubt…
     I will not take defeat…
          I will not fizzle out…
               I will not choose retreat!


God has a plan for me…
     My life has just begun…
          No matter what may be,
               I’ll fight ‘til life is done!


May this pain bring me joy…
     May this pain make me meek…
          May this pain not destroy
               But uplift all I meet!


I will live a full life…
     I will leave my own mark…
          I will conquer the strife…
                I will transform the dark!
