Why Me?

 

Why me,

I just can’t take any more,

surely I learnt this lesson before.

Why now,

when things are going okay,

please make this horror go away.

It hurts,

it pains, that it’s right now,

I suppose I’ll just have it anyhow.

That’s life,

it’s full of these hidden tests,

and it won’t change if I protest

Life has a way of springing things on us, usually when we are comfortable, perhaps a little to set in our ways.  Probably that’s why, we are not moving, stagnant, life is too easy and we need a little shake up.  It’s happened to me a number of times and I am never prepared, I want to cry and scream and beg for life to just go back to how it was.  But it doesn’t and you know what, there is always a reason, always something for me to learn.  I think I may put a little sign by my bed, reminding me that today could be the day things go wrong.  That way I’ll be prepared and what’s more enjoy every moment of the good times 😉

Protest – DP

I must protest I have the flu,

the female kind,

what can I do.

I will protest I’m feeling sick,

can’t leave home,

it must go quick.

I won’t protest a little nip,

the brandy dear,

should do the trick.

In response to The Daily Prompt – Protest

I woke up feeling poorly this morning, what stated as a tickle at the back of my throat last night has turned into something else completely.  I have honey, oranges and lemons and a drop of brandy if it comes to it.  My nan used to swear by a drop of brandy to get you back on your feet again, purely medicinal of course!
