Yes I smile,

And all the while

I lie,

I’m hurting all the time,

And so I cry,

I’m the perfect portrait,

Of hidden pain,

Off loss & gain,

I am not the same.

Crohn’s disease has definately changed me – and while I wrote this when I was going through a really tough time,  I’m still the sparkling, gutsy, sarcastic gal I’ve always been but with a little extra quirk.
