#SickPoems
Apathy and incompetence In healthcare A fax they didn’t send Prescriptions delayed Labs to do again
Blonde eyes To match her hair Life is mean She counts her blessings Hopes for the best
Love is sincere Sincerely Wanting to connect Love makes you crazy Insanity that makes you fly
Have you ever felt A hole inside of you Something dead inside Where your heart Is supposed to be?
Antisocial tendencies Amplified by sickness I can people watch Yet I can’t people talk I am lonely
Mis manchas de Bambi Manchas blancas Cubren mi cuerpo La gente se queda mirando Pero no les da asco
By nature high-strung But I thought I was strong If not physically, emotionally For things to roll off my back Be mature and take the high road
I know it’s for the best But it still hurts Hearing mothers complain For what I would give anything fo… My husband says no
Left on a leash Is no way to live He disappeared I like to imagine He’s running in a field
This world is covered in bias It’s all over you It’s all over me too This world is covered in bias It shades our words
Most women are cooks But a man who cooks Is a chef She cooks over and over To feed the masses
Desperate for his attention Knowing it will drive him away Jealous of a game - how lame Choking self-esteem where I lay Desperate for his affection
Hillary’s beautiful Rose Bumpy’s favorite princess My mini-me, my little lion Cute button nose Framed by red hair
How do you describe A man so dramatic? You can recognize him From afar with his hat Always the gentleman
