Walking into the room
I see you, in the worst way
Cords, wires, devices that beep
All of it surrounds you
I can't help but cry
I wish it was me instead
I fear for what's coming
He leaves us
Just us two
Voices say the fears I don't say out loud
"She won't make it- don't even bother now"
Your green eyes closed until now
I see the fear swallow you
I reach out for you
Hands bruised and worn down
Tears rolling from your eyes
I wish it was me
I kiss your hand, so you know you're not alone
"I'm here, you can let go. I've got them, you can let go mom"
You look at me with tears
The monitors scream
Its done
The worst moment of my life
Tears into me, the darkest corner of my mind
I will never forgive myself
I don't have this without you, I lied
Please come back
How sad! How moving! Life is so strange. We learn to love, we learn to let go
That was absolutely beautiful and a joy to read. Thank you.
