But You Look Fine 12/3/2010 7:17:55 AM
The pain gets so unbearable
My body refusing to do any more
The diseases ravaging me from the inside
only to hear friends and family say
But You Look Fine
Must I look frail and decrepit
confined and hooked up to machines
Before everyone will be able to understand
what the stroke and diseases are doing to me.
Even the doctors look at me and say
But You Look Fine
My mind tries so hard to push
my body past its limit
each and every minute of every day.
Knowing this will cost me days
possibly weeks of extra pain.
I am trying my hardest to stay
a part of this life
as hard as it is to bear.
The invisible illnesses are really cruel
and plays mean tricks on the mind.
If they could see and feel what's going on
inside me,
they would never say those words again,
But You Look Fine
