A Long Dreadful Month
It was basketball season
and without a rhyme or reason.
During this Bishop Ward game
my hip was never the same.
As I extended my leg out
she hit me and I let out a shout.
Sweat rolling down my red beat face
I got back on two feet with grace.
Finishing the game in excruciating pain.
In my head hoping for only a sprain.
I put the cold ice directly on my hip
but Saturday practice I couldn't skip.
Next Tuesday's game was not fun,
I lasted a whole three minutes and I was done.
The pain in my hip and tears on face began to flow.
Thats when I knew the doctors is where I had to go.
Doc said its swollen with some angry red inflammation.
He went ahead and prescribed the strongest medication.
A long dreadful month it would be
with absolutely no court for Olivia May to see.
