Pain

There’s a pain

From my brain

When I lie

And when I wake.

And there's no escape

From the terrifying pain.

 

Have you felt

Your spine  being crushed?

Have you felt

Your joints all coming out?

Or have you felt

Your nerves screaming

At the smallest of touches to your arm?

 

I feel death on my door

Each day when I wake,

I’m afraid

And I lay 

In my warm soft bed,

While my nerves explode my legs

And you still refuse to say

“ I get it, you're in pain."
