Painkiller
by Missing Nins
Acetaminophen, ibuprofen, naproxen.
Nothing can suppress,
this unbearable pain,
Of breathing suffocating oxygen.
There was no egress,
from this life of vain.
Until you lent me your ears,
Attentively listening to my sickness,
Alleviating all my pain.
You are indeed,
My painkiller.
