My diabetes,
Takes over my life,
I find myself talking about it a lot,
I find myself praying that it would go away,
This though, is something I know will never ever go away.

I hate the word diabetes,
I didn’t before,
But now that word is my life,
My family’s life,
My friends life,
Any they all complete me,
You see,
If all of those peoples life is broken,
I have no life because,
Well you see,
They complete me.

Why me I often find myself saying,
Maybe it was meant to be I think,
But then I think ‘me?’,
I know I’m not special,
I know I’m not smart,
But one thing I am is,
DIABETIC.
