Poem Entry #1 - Painkiller

# Painkiller
*by Missing Nins*

Acetaminophen, ibuprofen, naproxen.
Nothing can suppress,
this unbearable pain,

Of breathing suffocating oxygen.
There was no egress,
from this life of vain.

Until you lent me your ears,
Attentively listening to my sickness,
Alleviating all my pain.

You are indeed,
My painkiller.

Footnote: Acetaminophen, also known as paracetamol, is an analgesic drug (painkiller) used to relieve mild to moderate pain and fever.

Meanwhile, ibuprofen and naproxen are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) used to relieve pain, fever, and inflammation.
