They swabbed my
nostrils
testing to see
if
I've contracted the
coronavirus;

keeping my fingers
crossed
that I'm not
sick.

I Took A Sick Day

Today I showed up
to
work with a fever,
so
my boss had to
let
me take a sick
day.

Gladness (Taking Care of Me)

She wasn't
offended
by me
missing
our weekly
appointment
because I
was
exhausted from
work;

she's glad
that
I was
taking
care of
myself.

It's My Pleasure

Tonight my
friend
thanked me
for
being vulnerable
enough
to share
my
life with
him;

no thanks
necessary
it's my
pleasure.

Good News (Rest Easy)

Today my Mom
gave
me some good
news
the test results
read
that cancer didn't
spread
through her entire
body;

I can rest
easy
knowing that she's
okay.

T-Shirt Swag (My Style)

A random girl
approached
me and complimented
the
t-shirt I was
wearing;

it's not every
day
someone appreciates my
style.

You're My Survivor (Haiku)

I'm just happy that
you survived the surgery,
and are still alive.
