But At Least

Whimsical_1

My heart pangs and hurts   

Like a million pieces of shrapnel splitting inside me

But at least it is able to ache

 

My eyes are red and swollen

Like a million bees have laid their stingers and this is the aftermath

But at least they are able to cry

 

My arms are tingly and falling asleep

Like a million pins and needles that never seem to fade

But at least they are able to wake

 

My head has a heartbeat that pumps fast

Like a million drums beating in unison

But at least it is able to calm

 

My feet are cold and clammy

Like they sat in an ice puddle for a million years and never dried out

But at least they will warm

 

All of these sensations bombarding me

Yet, I’m numb

    Thoroughly enjoyed
    When we can live with the least life has to offer
    We appreciate the good times more
    Hang in there
    The good times are in the post
