No Straws Left…


I know I was grasping at straws,
But isn't that what they tell us to do?
Never give up, never lose hope,
But do what you have to do!
Well my straws were really dwindling,
And the glass was looking bare,
So the doctor wanted to see me,
And the result was so unfair…
In I went and smiled as I do,
While she looked a little sad…!
Well blimey-o-Reilly, what a shock!
The result was somewhat bad!

I have always lived with hope,
And it's kept me stronger than strong,
But now my problems are piling up,
And every thing's going wrong!
The hospital quite sternly told her off!
Because she sent me along to them!
Because they have written me off!
Now I will never go again!
Took my hope away from me,
Saying no-one can help me through…
All the pain I have every day…
And now I don't know what to do!

Pulled the rug from under me,
Left me dangling high,
No hope for me, just pain they see…
Until the day I die!
Well I have cried an ocean today,
Because they think I'm a waste of time!
Well now I have my positive head on!
And I'm going to be just fine!
Just because they cant help me!
Does not give them the right to cause pain!
By words and deeds that they do and blurt!
They should hide their head with shame!

I have come this far, and I will continue,
No way will I ever give up on ‘me!'
Because that's the wimp's way out!
And no way, no negativity will you see!
So I guess I continue on as I do,
And deal with this failing body of mine,
For I wont give up, I won't give in!
I'm going to do just fine!
So yes, I have cried an ocean today,
But I think it is allowed, because you see…
I mean to say, at the end of the day…
How many hopeless cases can I be!!!

One, just one whose been written off!
For isn't that what they did to me today!
Even my doctor was so upset!
To read that letter that took my hope away!
Stay focused, stay positive and strong,
My lovely doctor said to me…
And we will do all that we can do,
To ease this pain in me!
Doctors don't have any time to waste,
Well, most don't, so it seems,
But this doc of mine is a superstar!
One of those great doctors that are in our dreams!

A real one with feelings and compassion,
Who cares how we are treated in life!
And cares enough to try and help me,
To ease this life of strife!

Written Off?  No Way!!!

Just Because ‘They' Have Given Up On me!

Does NOT Mean ‘I' Give Up On Me!!!

I Didn't Get This Far Without A Fight!!!

I Refuse To Give In!!!
