Pain arrests any and all
Plans that were made
Pain is your selfish friend
That won’t go away
Pain can be all consuming
Sometimes
Compensating gait
Increased chance I could fall
Increasing ache, oh the ache!
Don’t engage me in conversation
For pain sake!
I’m no fun to talk to
I’m lost within the sensation
Can I just lay down!
Aching and stinging worsening
Please excuse my frown
I’ll try to improve my attitude
Turn that frown upside down
I know! Others have it worse
I should stop feeling sorry for
Myself
And accept this curse!
Yes! It is that bad!
Pain is an MMA fighter
Strikes with precision and cruelty
To which I refuse to pledge fealty
I’m so sorry!
I get so snarky
I’m just having a bad pain day
I don’t want to ruin yours
I’m not always this way
Pain is a vicious master
While he pokes and prods he
Also has his disciples ask if I’ve
Tried Thai Chi, etc
I’m sorry to hear about your
Cousin who has pain like mine, etc
Pain can make it hard to be
Patient and kind
I know it can be difficult sometimes
To find the right words
I can’t find a word that rhymes
I need to go lay down
