Christmas Day

I sit and wait for the pain to subside
Burning crushing crippling pain
Fuzzy lights obscure my sight
Breath is but a memory

Sharp pain and then some more
Electric current runs through me
Rapid beating of my heart
Dying and trying to live

Lethal injection of life saving drugs
Kick start my person back to the day
Burning crushing crippling pain
I’m dead and still I feel

People working pumping and breathing
Blessed oblivion of unconsciousness
Waking slowly to pink walls
Hospital gowns and nurses

Drugs to thin my blood, rat poison
Told to live an easy life, or die
Going home and dreaming
Of a future filled with hope
