In shadows deep, where pain does dwell,
A heart once whole, now cracked and fell.
Like Prometheus, bound, I bear the ache,
While wounds unseen, their toll they take.
Through trials dire, like Odysseus strong,
I navigate this path, though it feels so long.
Yet, in this struggle, I find strength anew,
Like Hercules, I rise, my spirit true.
Though ILLNESS strikes, a formidable foe,
I fight with vigor, like brave Perseus, I know.
With each breath I take, I defy its grasp,
For within me lies a resilience that will last.
