Unwell

It was a sleepless night
Harnessed with discomforts
Soft cushions felt like rocks of ages
Body felt as cracks of thirsty dams

Finally got up and crawled
Downstairs to the kitchen
In search of edibles
Took coffee with a chilly pie

Mesmerized by the sound of wind
I tiptoed outside to catch a sight
Got a snarl of feelings
Like a skein of thread

Stared at the night sky
Quite in sound and loud in lights
Freaky crickets chirp 
From beneath grasses.

Leaning on the glass rails,
A cool breeze struck through 
This had me now in jumpsuits. 
Got a little comfort until sunrise

I felt chills in the morning
Had to visit a physician 
The numerous beeps posed fright 
Yet it was unavoidable 

Multiple tests were conducted
Results revealed parasites in blood
Got a connection with a drip
I was very unwell.
