Painfully

It’s still burning

Feel like it removing the protective lying

Its hurting

Hurting like never before

Like life itself is beating it

Down by stress

Stuck in the same position

Turn and it yells

Breathe and it screams

Yell and it hollers

Your anger makes it angrier

Your worry makes it sick

Try to feed it and it will hate you

This friend/ foe is not for the weak

Give it medicine to calm it down

Prescribe and over-the-counter

It’ll let you know who the real boss of this town

Keep you in bed all-day

Goals are delay

It needs your attention

But you don't understand its intention
