Lupus, You Make Me Sick

 
 
 
I went to see the doctor today
He gave me some bad news
talking about chemo and nasty other drugs
I started crying in his office
but held most of my tears back
because I'm lady-like like that

God, I don't want to go through
this shit again
feeling bloated, feeling sick, and feeling bad
Oh what happened to summer
it was such a blast
but I always knew
 feeling good wouldn't last

Lupus, you keep taking from me
but Bitch, you've already taken all I've got!
Now you're back with a vengeance
to try to put me in my place.
You make me fucking sick
--literally--
Please get out my face.
 

I'm so damn sick of tests
needles
and medication
I'm sick of chronic illness
and its horrendous frustrations.

Lupus, you make me sick
you make me sick
you make me sick
and I'm-- sick-- of you
