Sheer Pain

This sheer pain
ripping through my body
red hot pokers
like stabbing needles
breathing painfully
as I try to move
my world diminishing
as this evil takes over

doctors poking me
checking my details
temperature and pulse
bloods samples and swabs
diagnoses and pain relief
then reassurances
assigned to a ward
and treatment started

off to the theatre
to remedy the pain
then a stay in observation
as I slowly recover
back on the ward now
visitors are welcome
the journey begins
along my road to recovery........


Written after a hospital visit.......
