Home Away From Health

It began and starts
With coughing out every word
And swallowing back all
And everything disgusting in us

When I awoke this mourn
My head so light, I swear I could fly
Lazy with eyes just as
I wish I could sleep

And with nothing to fill the time
I began to observe
The lives of Sarah and John
And watch how their lives brighten

I'm home today, away from the typicality
I am better, but it's still not right
But with all that's left, and the worst words
It wasn't the best today
