The more you treat me like a nag The more I become one I’m sorry if I micromanage Your clean clothes Your hot meals
May sun is warm An old friend You have missed June sun Still smiles
Itus and Itis Crashed my party I didn’t invite them! I whisper to my sister They make my skin crawl
A healthy pancreas Is like a transmission Seamlessly shifting gears In type 2 diabetics Wear and tear
Hospitality To love a stranger It need not be much For one who has little Will appreciate it
I look away Afraid to see Flicker of nerves In their eye A clench
Down to earth I am but of dust Dust particles I see floating in the air Carbon molecules
I struggle to Keep it together Maxims and mottoes On repeat In my mind
A noisy restaurant Listen Focus Beyond the dishes The music
I need to tell you How to survive With our disposition It’s okay to cry Maybe
I don’t expect Diabetes education For the public But chances are You know one
Inspirational quotes Are full of crap Whatever meaning Is lost In the sea
I enjoy his company Riding shotgun Conversation No one to overhear Our inside jokes
Restless As I lay in bed Trying to fall asleep These are my clues I might be low
Springtime means Berry pickin’ In warm sun Therapeutic Part of me
