Sick

She doesn’t feel well
They watch her woe
Not doing much
Treated like a foe

Lying there on the floor
They sigh and look away
Nothing to be done
Here forever more

Her sides ache and she groans
The pain won’t subside
It burns and it pinches
She’d rather die

She curls up and the pain grows worse
She stretches out and it’s the same
There is no relief
Only pain

What can she do?
Away from the world
Locked in
Trapped

With a key tightly locked
She can no longer breathe

Nothing is right
There is no longer light
She suffers, she bleeds
Nothing stopping, nothing leaving

Nothing can help
No one around
Biting into her soul
The pain surrounds

She can no longer take it
