To Be Left Alone with Illness

Poem about dealing with physical illness and sorrow.

It's numbing in its realness

To be left alone with illness

While everyone you trusted

Has just busted

All the pieces of your heart, apart

Without a thought of it

 

Kind of cruel but they know you

And you love them

So what of it

So they say everyday

As they treat you like that mat

You've been since when you met

 

I bet they hadn't seen it yet

Your soul got old

When they got told

That you just don't care

For them anymore

 

Good bye to some family

Good bye to some friends

This is when and how it ends

I just can't care for you anymore

 

I just don't care

 

I just don't

 

I just need

 

Me
