Being sick is not fun.
It takes away the joy in my life when I’m around anyone.
I can’t talk, I can’t sleep; I lie in bed without a peep.
With my energy depleted, sickness makes me feel defeated.
“You must rest and drink water”, say my mother and father.
Why, oh why, is fever such a bother?
I want to be fever-free, so here is my sickly plea:
“Why do I get sick? My fevers can be slick, but oh, how I wish,
I wish to not be sick.”
