swallowing seems easer, the lump seems no smaller, still tender and sore.
no longer taking pain killers so i can drive to work without crashing
today two people called in sick to work before i got the chance. "guess I'll be there" as my other tonsel cires from being under enough stress already. tears ready to fire at the edges of my eyes slept all night under the good wishes and dreams of my darling... but this bodys workin hard to feel better. and i tire quckly
this last week of school, filled with big final projects no procrastinator like me would have ever started before tomorrow.
two pills, one before i go and one when i get back
then to work for six of these seven days before holiday break
if only i could talk
two more pills. one when i get there. one just before i go
i'm already worn, feel about as lovely as that thing in my throat
bothersome and pointless
if only i could hibernate
i know a bear, but i let him down already this week
and know hes too busy to take me in
wish i could crawl inside my tears, dry up on the floor
as an unoticeable stain until i was healthy enough to rise and celebrate

how i miss my love
miss my family
miss the joy of health

gotta get dressed
