I lay awake in a pain I can not describe
It is a coming together pain
It is not a broken pain
A pain I can not describe

It is a healing pain
Is it not a positive pain?
Positively consciously living
A freedom pain

I drift off, twenty minutes to me a lifetime
A rude awakening pain
A noise invoking pain

Surrounded by strange sounds
Heavy breathing, none mine
I’m surrounded by pain
Relatable frustration, understanding eyes
Staying strong silent cries

Button calling drug pushing
Controlled drugs freely flowing
A pain I can not describe
Post-operative pain, a pain you can not hide
