 Through The Eyes Of A Poet...

And Even Though…


And even though I have taken my morphine,
It just hasn't hit the spot!!
Not touched my pain at all this night,
Oh such insurmountable pain I've got!

And I am used to this pain of mine,
Cos at the best of times my pain's so great,
Because the bones are breaking off my spine…
And my usual pain threshold is a high rate!

But even though my threshold is high!
As high as anyone's could ever be,
Tonight as I type, sitting here or not,
It's' not working tonight, God help me!!

All because of whiplash too!
Unbelievable; cos I wasn't in my car!
I was in my wheelchair, what a joke!
Because this pain's worse now by far!!!

I am scared in case I have broken bones,
In my neck, like I did in my spine!
And that was just from turning over in my sleep!
Oh yes, my bones are painful all the time!

But cos this pain is so horrendous,
I am terrified to even think!
What will I do, if I've broken them there!
For my sanity's on the brink!!!

And even though I have taken those meds,
They just don't seem to do the trick!
They make me woozy, dizzy and more,
They make me feel really sick.

And they are not working; nope, they aren't,
It's a good job that I can write!
To work it out in my head, as I do,
To help me through another dreadful night!!!

I hate it!!! I hate it!!! I hate it!!!
I do!!!!!!
