I decided to call him Jimmy
He decided to join me in life
I didn't ask for him
But he came anywayI can't see Jimmy
but I know he is there
My new best friend
but he doesn't really care.He's caused nothing but trouble
My body doesn't like
he grows stronger
I start to lose the fight.People don't understand
As I grow tired everyday
Jimmy likes to play
A very dangerous gameHeadaches increase
Pressure overload
Another sign to say
Jimmy's on the goSoon he'll be the size of a golf ball
And under the knife I'll go
Unsure if I'll survive or if
Jimmy will release the final blow.
