I’ve got a back pain that’s ruining my plans
It hurts when I sit,
And it hurts when I stand.
I need to laundry and dishes and dust,
But this pain in my back has got me feeling stuck.
It is quite saddening, and a little maddening;
That it has been here all morning,
And it doesn’t make my posture flattering.
I’ve taken a pill, but it did not help at all.
I could reach to the side, but I feel like I may fall.
I’ve got to get moving but this pain it keeps growing.
I am not knowing how long this pain will be showing.
It’s all in my mind, that’s what they say,
So maybe if I try I can wish it away.
Nope that’s not happening so maybe I’ll rest,
And just tell the others that I did my best.
My back is important, and I can’t tell it no.
I’ll have to seek heat because my back pain said so.
I’ll see if tomorrow will be any better;
See if I’m stiff as a board, or light as a feather.
