What Can A Body Survive? Is This A joke? Read on...It's long, but maybe worth the read if you're struggling with life?! Let me know, leave me feedback! This poem is all about empathy!!! What can a body survive, do you have a clue? Well here is my story and believe me, it's all true!! I had 2 brain tumours, both removed; Then epilepsy got me, I had tests; it was proved! I have Prinz Metal angina, and syndrome X, Yep, I have to say it, my body's a mess! I have heart disease, yep, and diabetes too! 2 more brain tumours trying to grow through! I had 2 mouth tumours, one was taken away, Then I grew another, and it's still here today! Then another tumour grew on the outside of my head, I have Gardners Syndrome, it's a wonder I'm not dead! This syndrome grows tumours wherever they please, These flipping operations could bring me to my knees! I have Osteoporosis; my bones break all the time, They are simply too weak and snapping off my spine. I'm riddled in arthritis, oh my bones and knees! They keep giving in and I fall, oh no, oh please!! Every time I fall, my bones are at risk again, This flipping wrecked body bears such awful pain. I have a scoliosis of my cervical spine... And a curvature that wobbles me all of the time. I have crush fractures and prolapsed discs on the spine, Nope, I have to admit it, my body's far from fine! My spine is fused, it doesn't move much at all, And cos I walk hip-hop I'm wonky, that's why I fall! I've got thyroid disease, and that's a pain! Cos I kept getting fat, time and again! My last disc's herniated my sciatica nerves are shot! Oh flipping heck, the pain, it's such a lot I've got! So I can't walk much my spine's no support, What can I do, there's no solace to be sought! Oh, I use a wheelchair to get me about, It's an electric one, its brilliant there's no doubt!! Oh, I'm partially deaf, but hearing aids are brill, Cos when there's too much noise I turn off the shrill! My liver is damaged, so are my kidneys as well... My eyes bleed and my visions affected, my health's not swell! My hands suffer with awful pain and swelling too... I'm sure you're reading this and wondering; ‘is it true?' Well my answer to that is, ‘yep, it sure is that...' Well blow me down, it's a wonder my minds not flat! Cos this is enough to drive anyone insane! Oh, I've had 20 operations, cos I'm a bit of a pain! I can't be a donor, cos my bits and bobs are gone! They took them away when I was 30, a good job done! I was a medical mess, in fact, I still am, it's true! It gets me down a bit, it would get you down too! But I have God on my side, helping me through... He supports me at length, as only He can do! Without Him in my life, without my faith, it's true... I wouldn't be here! I wouldn't know what to do?! But the LORD my God carries me through life, Helps me to cope; and put up with all of this strife! Faith is massive in my life; God blessed me you see... Cos I wake up each day, I'm alive, when I shouldn't be! So please read my tale of woe, and tell me true... If I can survive all this: could you survive it too? The answer is easy, for with God in your life... You really can do it, live with such pain and strife!! Like I do! And every day I wake up in pain... I thank God for my life! I am only here by the grace of God; And He alone! Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem
