Physical
My mind is not my own, when it’s filled with pain.
 My temper I cannot control, my anger I cannot restrain.
 
 But when I’m in, the right state of mind,
 I find it easier, to be kind.
 
 Yet when I’m outside, I cannot see,
 For the bright sun, is blinding to me.
 
 As sensitive as my eyes may be,
 My ears are of better quality.
 
 Hearing each sound in this loud room;
 Each whisper’s like, a shout so rude.
 
 I cannot bend, I cannot stretch.
 I cannot turn, and arch my neck.
 
 For if I do, the pain’s so bad,
 I cannot move, my vision’s ting’d red.
 
 Why can’t I get, a full night of sleep?
 Why can’t I rest, after “g’night, sweet dreams”?
 
 A pill, two puffs, at night; two pills, a prayer, each morn.
 Let me breathe and live today, have a life alike the norm.
