It's 4 a.m. I'm finally asleep, please don't wake me!!
For I'm anxious to see where my dreams may take me..
12,000 foot peaks covered in snow,
carpeted meadows of clover - I just never know.
To hot places, cold places - high and low I do travel.
In my dreams, I'm fine, I do not unravel.
Lightening strikes, rain storms, snow on the ground,
Who gives a heck the barometer went down!
I'm off to the Alps, The Pyramids, Matchu Pichu - who cares,
I am free of the cushions of couch, bed, and chair.
A party you say?? Yah put me down -
Not - I will let you know when the day rolls around.
Love shopping with friends - always busy,
Can stand a long time without getting dizzy.
I am running, jumping, and dancing around -
Not fighting pain sun up to sun down.
I get to do in my dreams what most take for granted!
Working, thinking, making plans, swimming - setting goals, visiting friends, loving, and winning!
Sometimes my dreams do turn dark, I admit,
Dreaming of Govt peeps, arrogant physicians, and those in high places, also getting sick -
I'd like to see "them" sick instead - then tell them that -it's all in their HEAD!
They'd wish instead they had AID's or Cancer,
As bad as those are - at least there is an answer!
They'd wish for an illness that people believe-
Not an invisible nightmare - that no one can see.
Oh this dreaming feels sooo dang good - don't wake me - NO PAIN...
I'm barefoot and dancing, in the rain!
Gee what I'd give to feel this great instead,
Of the fluish 24 hours of "hell" ahead.
In my dreams I am confident and intelligent, like I used to be.
Before this illness robbed that from me.
I'm always joking and clowing around,
Not flat on the couch with my smile upside down.
A real mover shaker..all of the time..
without constant fire in my muscles and spine.
I dream of an answer or even a cure - A Govt who cares, researches, and studies
Not a system all about profit and monies.
Most go to sleep to have a bad dream, some say.
ME patients wake up to a nightmare each day.
Time to awaken is drawing near - No! No! It's too dang fun right here!
Mr Sandman - I'm not done - my soul you can take...
Oh well... yuck.... I'm AWAKE!!
But instead of dread, I now have hope,
Cuz I have Dr. Kogelnick to help me to cope.
After 35 years - my Dr. Shopping Days are DONE...
I found Dr. K - I know he's the ONE...
He has a great heart, mind, and strong will -
If he can't help me - Nobody will!
He is an angel, he gives choices -
To all ME sufferers he gives us BIG voices!
Thank YOU Dr. K for FIGHTING OUR FIGHT...
You are HOPE - a twinkling star - on a very dark night!
