Small cough
Little sneeze
Runny nose
Teary eyes.
Drug your body,
Keep it fresh
Drink some water
Let it be.
Minor headache
Itchy body,
Burning eyes
Hurting ears.
Pediatrician gives you drugs,
Take it now,
Three a day.
Heating fever,
Body aching
Brain melting,
Reality breaking.
Hospital is nearing,
Vision blurring
On a bed,
In a car.
Light shining
Men looking,
Knife cutting,
You dying.

I never wonder what it would be like for me to not have my disease
But I do wonder what it would be like to be someone without it

What it would be like to not miss school to see a doctor whose specialty my classmates can't even spell
What it would be like not to take a pill every morning
What it would be like to not face the repercussions of not taking my pill one morning
What it would be like not to pay for the Synthroid
What it would be like to not know anything about it

I think it would be quite ordinary
I think I would be weaker for it
not being able to endure the symptoms
I think I would have less initiative
Not having to take my pill for myself at a young age
I think I would be less curious
Not wanting to know more about myself
I think I'm better off for it

I know more about myself
I know more about the world around me
I know more about perseverance
I know more about medicine
I know more about budgeting
I know more about individuality

I would never want for me to not have my disease
I'm a better person for it

I'm totally fine,
Yeah,
Totally feeling
The disease you don't believe in

You say everthing has its season,
But my mind, it isn't healing!

Your 'training' leaves me tired
Pain makes me uninspired
Unless by you it's fired
From life, just might retire
