Ouch That Hurts

Pain is so debilitating Pain is incapacitating Tablets many to be taken Balm to gently calm an excruciating pain I have in my right arm Oh how it makes you realise How much one needs both arms When one no longer works with such pain it really hurts So I pray these tablets help For everytime I move I yelp Cannot even brush my hair To dress myself ~ well I despair Pain I beg please go away Pain I have both night and day Makes me think of those poor souls Whose pain will never go away No tablets help No balms can cure Constant pain for they endure I pray one day that they will be Like you and me they’ll be pain free Written 26th October ~ after suffering a great deal of pain in my right arm making it impossible for to use at all…

As we grow older we suffer from all aches and pains. Usually it's my hip bone. Great poem.
