Surgery

Surgery

A flurry of emotions surround such a word
Time and date Tuesday 
A ticking timebomb
tic, tic, tic
until the day arrives

 
Surgery Tuesday 
A chaotic rollercoaster of emotions
Up, down, spin, zag, and zip
 
Surgery Tuesday 
A waterfall of pouring emotional dread
A heart pounding intense psychological warfare 
Just wanting it done and over with
And back on the road to recovery 
 
Surgery Tuesday 
Tonight will be the last night I will sleep in my own bed for a while
Going to KC tomorrow 
9am Tuesday I have an MRI 
The later in the afternoon the Surgery itself
 
Surgery tomorrow 
I accept the cards life has dealt me
Life is like a game of poker
Sometimes you win
Sometimes you lose
But you can never cheat the house
I just want this over with
And on the road to recovery 
 
Surgery today 
SHIT!!!!

    Yeah , I imagine that’s scary .. hope your recovering well then

    I know it’s not the same thing but I have to have few teeth taken out in a few weeks

    It’s always a relief when things have been done
