LJ Idol 10 - Week 10: Take a Hike
hike my back throbs a steady staccato of pain my shoulders knotted, knotting as i write pain shooting down to my right elbow my knees crackling louder than bonfire and celebration the left one is torn inside I wish it would all just take a hike disappear vanish into thin air just for a minute, an hour, a day, a lifetime just vanish if my pain were to disappear i would not mourn for it i would wait nervously scared of its return but i wouldn’t put it on milk cartons or interview people about it on tv i would just wait i would slowly learn to be who i am again walking faster stretching further i would return to yoga calm and strength in one i would play more board games with my family and sit on the floor building legos with my son i would call my friends and suggest that we take a hike that we build up to weekend backpacking trips again i would camp under the stars in nothing but a bivy sack to protect me i would not miss my pain but for now it is pretty constant the knot in my shoulder tightening across my neck leaving more parts of me to hurt leaving me with choices of medication and hot baths concoctions and cauldrons to heal me i remain unhealed
