A turbulent journey

A Turbulent Journey;by RASESWARI PANDA My gut's a battlefield, a war zone inside Where digestive demons, constantly reside Cramping, bloating, and pain, my constant guides A turbulent journey, that never subsides The bathroom's my sanctuary, my place of rest Where I escape the world, and try to be my best But even there, I'm not alone My symptoms linger, like an unwelcome guest at home I search for answers, in every single place From doctors to diets, to herbal remedies and space I try to find solace, in every single thing But my gut's a mystery, that's hard to unravel and sing The anxiety creeps, like a thief in the night Stealing my peace, and filling me with fright Will today be calm, or a troubled day? The uncertainty, is a constant, nagging way But still I rise, I face the day with cheer I take my meds, and try to calm my fear I breathe deeply, and let my worries slow And find a calm, amidst the turbulent flow I'm not alone, in this journey I roam There are others like me, who face this gut-wrenching home We search for support, in every single place And find solace in each other, and a friendly face So here's to my gut, and its turbulent ways I'll learn to manage, and seize each new day
