Under the Knife

  the tubes attached, the fluid dripping the beeps repeating and coinciding with my heart the pain subsiding the dreams occurring   medicine injected calms my nerves and soothes the pain in a freezing room with everything metallic the mask comes down my eyes close I open up and get rearranged   awakening to the dizziness dry mouth and a cloudy head returning from the dead it seems the pain comes back and stabs at me but one day I will walk normal and be like I was before everything broke before you left before I cared everything will be perfect but not today, I need months of rehab however that's nothing compared to the recovery from you   my insides ache and I cant concentrate the medicine keeps my mind from attaching to anything and stops the pain from occurring my eyes close I am under the knife
