Two major operations have left metal in my spine
A new bionic woman, fashioned by doctor's design
So I'm four inches shorter than I was ten years ago
That seems to make my body shape look like the letter O
My eyes are having trouble and they don't see very clear
The positive in that I can't see myself in the mirror
My body is a mess; most of my joints have been replaced
Instead, I should have taken them to church and have them graced
I can't make up my mind to have my shoulder surgery
My ortho doctor says he has a bone to pick with me
My husband came into my life and he would steal my heart
Yet, one thing that I've kept from him, he's never heard me...
The parts inside my body that you can't see with your eyes
Some have been taken out and now there's room to organ-ize
I sharpen up my brain by reading/writing when alone
That's also been a way to help to sharpen my backbone
I know when it's my time to go, my eyes will have to wait
The pupils will be last to go, cause they will both di-late
