Mistakes...We All Make Them!I was in a mess so I went into hospital for help, Now I'm more of a mess, and with every step, I yelp! They tried to fix me, but only for a short while, Cos I go in hospital often with this spine of mine! But this time, well, it all went a bit wrong, And I'm in hellish pain, and I'm usually strong! But now this has finished me, my back is shot. I always say; ‘we're stuck with what we've got!' But what I've got is a heck of a mire of a mess... If you see how I walk, you don't have to guess! I can't put the pressure on my left or right side, The pain is so horrendous, and hard to hide. We visited my mum at her nursing home last night, I sort of took a ‘Yankee stagger' as one might! Now a ‘Yankee stagger' is slang for me, It's a Liverpool saying for ‘wobbling' you see. So I had this ‘Yankee stagger' and just like that, The pain got worse, and I thought; ‘oh drat!' I thought it was a flash in the pan and it'd go, But it's just got worse, oh trust me, I know! I realised before as hubby got me out of the car, It's my sciatica! And it's gone, way too far! You see, I go in hospital to help the pain, But they had a glich, I can't have epidurals again! So I'm sitting here now, in agony, yes I am truly, As each movement I make, the pain goes through me! I guess I've written it out, well, it seems so to me, I didn't tell you what happened but it's like this, you see! Mistakes...We All Make Them! Some Have Detrimental Effects... I Am That Detrimental Effect. But It ‘Was' A Mistake! Life Happens. Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem |
