Katherine Stella Poet Rhyme

Mama ! Whats Wrong With Me

mama !  whats wrong with me
crawling on this floor on bended knees
a bucket a towel and kleenix for when I sneeze
injections where the sun doesn't shine or glee

please tell me mama what was given to me
emergency visits and sirens for all to come run and see
test and more test without any answers given to thee
is it unknown or was this meant for this to be
my sickness I have deep inside thats stops me from running free


mama how could you have given this to me
was it through your dna or excitment to its fifth degree
or was it too much sun in the eyes for I beg and plea
mama what have I've done to deserve these nasty heaves


mama please help me help me please
three days of hell to its fullest degree
is not what I want for the world to see
of me  lying on the floor as I beg and plea
mama please help me help me please





note
for last 25yrs I have been suffering 
with unknown illness that prevents me
 from having a full life and took me away from
being a full time mom to my jenny I have to take 
injections that make me stop throwing up 
to 3 days and meds makes me sleep 
up to 9 hours sometimes
this sickness is called CVS   
{cyclic vomiting syndrom}
found in children 
and now adults too 
mostly women

no cure no remedy 
just things to help ya through the night
oh what fun    LOL

Marycile Beer July 9, 2008 at 11:02 AM I know the feeling you are living with and the same questions. We lost our Catherine 4 years ago to breast cancer. She fought 5 years before it took her. I pray there will be an answer to your problem soon. Hang in there girl we love you. God Bless, Cile

Joseph Spence Sr June 15, 2008 at 11:38 AM There is a journey we all must take, and on occasions it’s known and unknown. There are times when it's unbearable, and times when we push forward in the face of odds. Keep pushing forward with a positive spirit. I will say a special prayer for you. Your expression is excellent. ~ Joseph

June 14, 2008 at 8:43 AM Dear Kathy, I have a chronic condition that started with a viral illness so I can feel for your journey. Each day presents challenges. Too often, people take health for granted until you lose it. May God grant you strength to deal with the difficult days. My thoughts and prayers go with you. Writing is therapy for me as I hope it is for you. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us and for your kind words regarding my poem. We have sunshine today! Take care my friend. Karen
