"A Deeper Pain" (Entry 474)

Shifted beneath unyielding pain,

I dug further to, in hope, that naught remain. 

But as I clawed into my mind. 

The deeper shafts, the more to find. 

Sifted through the depths deep to dwell. 

Only to discover my personal hell.

"My Tale" (Entry 337)

Snow White, in her delight,

gets Sleepy and Sneezy and such. 

In my defence, it's not little men,

but seven severe effects

inside my leg. 

Say hello to

Stiff and Sensitive, 

(Owww!)

Stabbing and Sore, 

(That's pain, right now!)

and Spasm and Swollen, 

(Ouch!)

and last, it's Sorrowful. 

(Sorry to be such a grouch!)

No Disney, just dizziness. 

No colour cartoon, life's on a different tune. 

No songs sang. Only nerves pang.

Don't want to wail, but it's no fairy tale.  

It's my days ever after.

"Complain" (Entry 328)

Dependent and pitied. 

What a life this is. 

To be stuck and reliant. 

I've never been compliant. 

All about power, yes domination. 

Leads to this upset, this frustration. 

Can't throw away the wheels or the sticks. 

Wish there was treatment, a miracle, a fix. 

Alas there isn't, they can't, it's done. 

Even if I turn the mood around. Can't run. 

But I can laugh and smile and play. 

I'll think on that each and every day. 

I may be limited along this rocky road of pain. 

But I'll hold my head high and say, "Can't complain!"

"My Bane" (Entry 320)

This pain. 

A strain in vein. 

My bane

To which I'm chained. 

So drained. 

Attempt to remain

Sane. 

It's the rain forever

On my plain. 

Will I ever gain?

I train my brain

To feign a campaign 

Of constrain. 

Hard to maintain. 

Let me explain. 

I scream out - 

A shout of words 

Profane and arcane. 

Don't want to complain. 

The inane pain

Has disdain 

For my aim. 

Runs free rein. 

I'm slain,

Once again,

In pain. 

"Tender a Surrender!" (Entry 319)

What will this day bring?

Spasm and sting. 

Pain. 

The stain on my personality. 

Deep ache. 

Give me a break!

Throbbing and burn. 

Robbing me of life's turn. 

Cramp and tender. 

White flag a surrender!

Stabbing and strain. 

Forever and again. 

"Give me a break, headache" (Entry 214)

Head pounds.
Vascular ground.
Mood down.
Desist sound.
Nerves wound
Muscles found
Tight tonight.
Binds and bound.
Teeth grind.
Pain unbidden.
Need to get rid of
this clustered mound.

"Gone" (Entry 175)

Every morn, the same.
Gone and left lame.
Reliant on help.
Scream in pain and yelp.
Can't hear the cry.
To wait and lie.
Until you return to me.
Don't allow yourself to see.
The dark hole in which I dwell.
My personal daily forgotten hell.

"Waste of a Life" (Entry 145)

Awake. Too late. Can't move with aches.
Left to fester in sweat and vile.
Count the hours - here awhile.
Attempt to rise, to brush and wash.
This is my life. What a loss!

"Head Break" (Entry 98)

Smash!
Head cram.
Full of memories breaking out.
Crash!
Brain bam.
Throbbing ache, I could do without.
