Unbearable Pain

Another day comes to be
like a a warm summer breeze 
but my heart aches.
Why do I suffer with aches
in this body?

As I walk I feel faint
my knees are weak
my tummy like a creek.
Doctors every week 
but yet so weak.

Some day to dance
and go place
to place
free of aches.
I want to fly
like an eagle
on the warm breeze.
Yet I feel like a tree
in the wind swaying
side to side.
