Won a gold medal for a #poem just in time for #NationalPainWeek and the start of the #Olympics

Invisible Battles by David Wakeham Shattered shards of self, scattered in the silence, / Anxiety amplifies, adheres to every . Published at the web's largest poetry site.

As we end another #NationalPainWeek, I note that it has been 7548 days since my last pain-free day.

Coincidently, I was awarded another gold medal for one of my poems, Invisible Battles. So let's celebrate that.
