Saturday Sentiments

By lunchtime
fever found her
start ruining what she thought
is a perfect day.

Her body weighed down
spirit slowing going
a few notches north.
Saddening.

A week ago -
talked to herself
that no negative thoughts,
will ever put her down.

But she failed today -
miserably.
Whispered prayers
in between such sobbing.

Everything just aches -
from head to toe.
And no warms hands
to comfort her.

At night time,
while in bed -
she hopes to be well
hen the sun shines.

But for now,
she fights this fever
even when there's no one
out there, at the moment.
