I didn’t know
Why I felt this way
Why I felt older than
I should each day
No one could tell me
Why my legs turned red
Why my eyes rolled up
Why I felt this dead.
I found it myself in my labs
And knew it wasn’t right
That they just didn’t tell me
Could cost me my life.
So now there is an answer
So now there is a fight
Before just a gray cloud
With no answers in sight.
I do not think I will lose
Or feel pathetic
Because I have this thing
I am a diabetic.
