sick and restless

She felt the nausea sitting on the top of her stomach.
Underneath muscles clenched repeatedly imitating a dull stabbing
Release lasting only seconds before tightening
forces more fluids upwards.

She wanted to die
or rest
Or Would even settle for only sleep.
Whichever provides the quickest relief

Compromising has always been her easiest solution to all
because she really just wanted to reduce the fever.
Irritated and more testy as she became hotter and dizzier.

And
Tired, Oh
she was so tired.
