Unwell
It was a sleepless night
Harnessed with discomforts
Soft cushions felt like rocks of ages
Body felt as cracks of thirsty dams
Finally got up and crawled
Downstairs to the kitchen
In search of edibles
Took coffee with a chilly pie
Mesmerized by the sound of wind
I tiptoed outside to catch a sight
Got a snarl of feelings
Like a skein of thread
Stared at the night sky
Quite in sound and loud in lights
Freaky crickets chirp
From beneath grasses.
Leaning on the glass rails,
A cool breeze struck through
This had me now in jumpsuits.
Got a little comfort until sunrise
I felt chills in the morning
Had to visit a physician
The numerous beeps posed fright
Yet it was unavoidable
Multiple tests were conducted
Results revealed parasites in blood
Got a connection with a drip
I was very unwell.
