Trapped

Trapped in the horrors of menopause.

Let us talk about over heating.

Have you ever felt like somebody threw your body on top of a heated skillet?

Do you remember what sleep is?

Every day feels like I am living in hell.

When I close my eyes not soon far after I feel like I am being drowned.

Sweat seeping through all of my pores,

I wipe it off just to continue sweating even more.

I sleep with a fan practically attached to my feet.

I don't even remember what it feels like to live normally.

I suffer from sun up all throughout the sun being down.

I try my hardest

but I'd be a liar if I said that I wasn't tired.

Trapped in the horrors of menopause

I no longer have a say at all.

My body takes control

and when my mind does not want to agree it gets told to

"hit the road."

So then I just sweat

and try,

and then sweat some more.
