Oh My God!  What’s going on!

Nearly whole thumb nail came off

When I just load paper to copier tray

Can’t imagine I can bear this pain

Just a nail but the pain is great

Wonder what more can I take

What if the break is the thumb itself

By then I should be painful like hell

Sad that broken nail victim nobody cares

Insurance coverage also not there

So I have to blame on my own luck

A broken nail still better than a broken heart

:(

    Ha ha that hamster picture is perfect.

    I hate breaking nails.

  • Starpisces on Oct 13, 2011

    thanks friends for your comments & concern.
    though not the entire nail but quite deep, thumb a bit swollen and clumsy now, can only use for hitting the space bar. :(

    True that it is better than broken heart. I just hope that it stops hurting very soon. I know the feeling so I feel for you. When I was little, I smashed one of my finger with brick and lost the entire nail, broke my nails and got them ripped from flesh many times since then … I usually kick off nails (both the small ones and big ones) on my feet though – happens several times a year …

    It is not good if the thumb is swollen though …

    I seem to be going through a spate of these misadventures lately – sounds like you need a holiday!

  • Starpisces on Oct 13, 2011

    thanks friends again.

    @Michal – i ever broke the entire nail of the mid-finger when i was much younger too. :(

    Star, sorry to hear that you broke your thumb nail. I understand how painful it is. Whenever I broke my nails, I used to apply a cartoon sterile plastic plaster to cheer myself up a little bit. It may not be suitable at work, but no harm to use it at non-working hours. Hope you get well the soonest.

    Sorry for the mishap, but this poem is brilliant.

  • Phoenix Montoya on Oct 14, 2011

    Aw, heart or nail. I don’t want ether one of them broken.

  • ken bultman on Oct 14, 2011

    Ouch.

  • mtrguanlao on Oct 15, 2011

    Oh my Star,at least it was just your nail not your thumb.

  • FX777222999 on Oct 20, 2011

    Nice of course, than the other.

  • CA Johnson on Oct 25, 2011

    I loved your poem. It reminded me of how I broke my first finger nail on my left hand. All I did was take a top off of a can and it snapped off.
