Surviving through
Another night of pain
Having only myself to blame.
Not being careful
Or noticing enough
Is why I’m having to endure this stuff
Ever ache and pain
Has a piggy back;
Cause diabetes catches hold
And throws everything off track.
What might be a little pain in my thigh
Will also jump to my stomach without knowing why,
So many pains that can’t be explained
Except to say you’re diabetes;
You can search high and low
For the answer to know.
But you might as well just forget it
There’s no understanding reasoning why
Pain accelerates til you just want to cry
You try to manage but mostly you endure
And you pray everyday
That they just find a cure.
