As I sit here drinking my coffee as I often do
I find myself thinking of you.
Hard to imagine my life before you came
Since you’ve been here my whole life has changed.
You came like a Lion ready to devour its prey
All I could do was just pray that day.
We have since been closer than almost any other thing.
It’s like we are wed without the wedding ring.
I can’t say I haven’t thought of just leaving you
But I thought by now there’d be a scientific break through.
When I am out and about on the town
You are there right beside me, and I frown.
If I exercise you have to be there making sure that I feel your prescence
Wish sometimes you’d be absent!
To feel what I once felt
To not worry about stretching my belt,
These things have become prominent to me
I wish for the day you would leave me.
If you left I probably would cry
But hey, that would be me saying goodbye.
Tears of joy people would say
That would be a phenominal day!
For now though it’s like a bad twin
You tell me how…I make the when,
I choose to acknowledge you
To understand and fight too.
Diabetes you rule but I tell you how
And without me you have no power now.
Sink or swim is the saying for this disease
Just don’t say “Defeated”, if you please.
Most people are afraid of “bogey men”, not me
I am afraid of this blinking disease!
When you lay down at night,
I bet there is nothing that gives you fright
For me, that is not the case, you know
I have to be careful not to have a high or low
Because my sugars can change in the blink of an eye.
It is not fair to worry, when you lay down at night.
For you, life is filled with all you can or want to eat
But for me, I have to watch what I eat.
I cannot ever be lost in the woods, oh my
Because without my medication, I can die
I am a prisoner to this disease
It is a silent killer of me
Without proper care or proper medicine
I would not exist, I would serve as a critical lesson.
Something could change in the blink of an eye
You should make the most of each minute, both you and I.

Diabetes
You so suck!
Figuratively and literally
Oh what you have taken from me!
I wish there was a place where I could exchange you
Where I could choose whether or not to renew you.
I hate having you by my side 24/7
You make my food choices react to my body
Everything I do revolves around you.
I hate that sweets have become a focal point,
Where as they never seemed to be.
I do not like having to take shots, daily.
I hate all the medicine that comes with having you
You know if you were a person, you would be considered selfish.
If you were a choice, no one would ever pick you.
Everyone despises you and yet you still are around.
Wrecking hopes and dreams and leaving despair to be found.
I shutter to think what advances you will bring to my being
What things you are planning behind the exterior of my body
What is it that you aim to accomplish?
I tend to believe you care nothing about me.
In fact if I was a betting person, I would stake it all on that thought.
Look at the conditions on my own life you have brought.
You suck, you are a thief,
I wish you would leave and bring me relief,
Diabetes, go and never come back
I just want to live without losing a limb or two
A life, my life, was given to me, not you!
