Worried Sick

My mom says I'm sick

But I know what it is

The butterflies in my stomach have turned

against me

They're waging a war

Trying to escape

They tried to fly up my throat

And they took my dinner with them

Little do they know

I'd let them go if I could

I whisper a prayer into the toilet bowl

Begging them to be still

Telling them

we could all be free.
