There's blood upon the floor
Emergency room; quiet; still
Doctor's gone; nurses too
Just machines; beeping
CPAP breathing...
I'm sitting here; watching you
Bright red drops upon the floor
Upon your nightie; once pink; too
X-ray machine has come and gone
Diagnosis; pneumonia; fluid too...
How quickly life changes
Yesterday; we were laughing
A little bit; imagine it...
Today we're in Emergency
Ambulance: called; urgently
I cannot leave you
I prayed for you; dear mum
Asked God to hear my plea...
Your B P's gone down quite a lot
Your hand feels warm to my touch
Felt like crying; but; what's the use?
Today
I have to be the strong one; no excuse!
