diabetes

dreading every test
impossible to predict.
a perfect number never lasts
because life keeps moving
even if I can't keep up.
take this insulin, try those pills
every day I fight a little harder,
sometimes I win but in the end I'll lose

anxiety

I try
to be something
more than just my illness
but life is hard when I'm anxious
so hard

he said she said

he said she said yes
no one ever asked her
she thought they would care

of cats and dogs

hiss, kitty hates it
growl, she tries to escape me
bark, the dog has come
he pushes the brush away
leave kitty alone he asks


(bc it isn't all hate between them ♥)
