THE PRESSURE WITHIN

Hip hip hooray,
there going to do,
my eyes today.
A laser burn,
In each eye.

Will I still see,
That's the surprise.
Think I must confess,
I'm terrified.

I'd rather not go through,
This thing I have to do.
It's an unreasonable fear,
This I know is true.

Macula and glaucoma,
Who would have guessed.
Not me for sure I confess,
All this and cataracts two.

As we grow older,
Why do we suffer as we do.
Hopefully the pressure within,
Each eye will go away,
So my eyes can live another day.
