Nothing and Nowhere

Lying here
Too sick to move
Struggling to stare at my ceiling
Overcome by ache
My eyes flutter closed.

I give in
I let the illness consume me
Pulsing blood
Surging through my brain
Taste of bile
Making its way into my mouth
Red, sore, scratchy
My throat convulses
My head throbbing and cloudy
Can't function right
Maybe thats why breathing is hard
My eyes flutter open.

Once familiar
Now alien
The childhood toys of the past
Do not seem right
So out of place
Yet so in place
Confusion surges like a flash
Into my debilitated body
My eyes flutter closed.

*i only just managed to write this one, when i had the flu. lol*

Tomorrow, is the today we feared yesterday.

I liked it, but I just wanna say, don't flood the boards Kirst. Your poems are great and amazing and envious but your dominating the boards.

Just being honest.

No it's cool, I still read them, but I just don't reply to all.
