The white coats

Another needle in my arm,
A waiting room awaits,
There trying to analyse the harm
That health has on my fate.

Sample some more blood,
Repeat the symptoms like a list,
The pain is a tidal wave and flood
That takes its toll like a deathly kiss.

The doctors care and want to cure
But people are not human but patients,
The stabilisers and pills aren't pure
The waiting room is silently vacant.

I know that this pain is temporary
But today feels like too long to live
My remains will be fragmentary
But science has more to give.
