Don’t believe because I smile
That the numbness went away.
Don’t believe because I laugh
That I’m not in pain today.
Don’t believe because my hair is done
That anything has changed.
Don’t believe my body won’t react
To the sun, the snow, the rain.
Don’t believe because I walk
That I’m not prepared to fall.
Don’t believe that “looking good”
Changes my health at all.
Don’t believe because I hug
That it doesn’t make me wince.
Don’t believe because I “look good”
That MS does not exist.
Don’t believe I will give up
The person I am inside.
Don’t believe that MS is gone
Even when it hides.
