She feels the pain
Needles puncturing skin
Blood swishing up
Numbness at the bone
Internal pain rises up
The brain cannot think

Wanting to be still
Life calls you
Aching each step
Internal bleeding
God help me
Mind going blank

Daily dose of pain
Mixed with her
Morning drink
She’s wrong
Pain is gone

Time to be strong
