Blood Test

Sitting in the Waiting Room
Waiting for my results
A prick of the finger, drawing blood,
Hurts worse than insults

Do I have HIV/ AIDS?
How will this story end?
Oh how I wish
That he had stayed a friend

Or could it be cancer?
Spreading through my body
Growing everywhere
Oh how naughty

Then it comes
The nurse calls my name
The verdict: just drink more milk
“That’s it?!” I exclaim!
