Trapped

Trapped in a bed. In a room. On the oncology floor.

Will they ever let me leave?

Another X-ray. More blood draws. Never-ending vital checks.

My body is trying to kill me. My soul is trying to live.

Back to normal. Something I’ll never have again.

Trapped in a body that’s not my own.

New Scars. Missing parts. Broken pieces.

Will they ever let me leave?
