Arguing With My Body.A Poem by AccaliaIt describes some of things I go through at any given moment, but I picked late night to early morning to write about. Also I don't own the picture.
Arguing With My Body.
My Body: Wake Up! Wake up I say! Me: No body it's two in the morning I beg you let me sleep. My Body: Sleep!? you're so funny! You must get up- You're sugar is too low! Get up now! I say now! Me: (Gets up and checks sugar) It's 200 my sugar is not too low body- You don't need any food Now please lest me sleep. My Body: you hear that? You hear it don't you? The growling, churning of our stomach. It seem dinner wasn't very pleasing. You better run to the trash can.. NOW! Me: Ugh fine.. (Gets up from the couch, and falls instantly) My Body: Oh..oops I forgot- To mention that your hips Aren't sitting right in their sockets So..good luck with walking! Me: (sighs) Great...why? Why must we do this? I've done nothing to you body... My Body: Exactly..you did nothing. Oh before I forget?.. Do you feel that? The burning, crippling, stabbing- Drive you insane kind of pain? Look who came to join the party! Nerve pain& muscle spasms! Me:...Please stop! Please..I beg of you My Body: Ha! fat chance! If you really want release Then take those painkillers. That make you a zombie That make you puke your brains out! That make you unable to move or concentrate. Me: ..No.. I won't They don't work- They don't help- I'm just about the same. When I take the painkillers. ...I'd rather suffer. My Body: Then suffer you shall, For it's a long way before morning- And we're far from done. But hey look on the bright side, At least you're not alone in this. You have me. Me: (Sighs) ...Well so much for sleep (Gets up from the floor ) This is such a pain. (Grabs the remote & sits on the couch) I guess I'll see what is on tv. And wait for this nightmare to end. © 2017 Accalia |
