Its a poem. Nothing more.
Dedicated to Joey. Please come back to us...
Walls whiter than ice
Sheets colder than death
Air chills me to the bone.
Sounds of respirators,
People screaming.
People Crying.
Beeps, sirens, sighs and pain
Machines keeping people alive.
Machines keeping people away.
Shaking, spasms, glazed eyes.
People bartering with God for more time.
People begging to God for less pain.
Technology surrounding
Monitors echo the mind and body.
Preachers echo the spirit.
Barely awake.
Barely alive.
Fully conscious in a locked box.
Those of us staring at the box.
Waiting for news.
Lusting for hope.
Patients practicing patience.
Life holding deaths hand.
Death walking with Life.
Screaming, shaking...
Please..
Come back.
