It has been so long since that dreadful day but now and then I can still recall it. Medical shows have not been the same since that day, when you nearly passed away. Sometime I imagine what life would be like if you were gone, and I start to tear up. Mostly I am scared that it would actually happen, but I know we'll all kick the bucket some day. It just seems as though you are closer to it than most. I am so scared sometimes. I can’t imagine life without you and I don’t want to lose you already. I wish I could restore you to health and make sure you could stay with me forever. But I know that is not possible.
Very nicely written... I'm all teared up.. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteGreat poem. Very emotional in the very best of ways. Made me a little sad.
ReplyDelete"Scared am I mostly" - was that the phrase you had originally, read forward? A bit odd...
ReplyDeleteThe text really insists on its one emotion, and that it does quite strongly and effectively, but the singlemindedness of it could also be seen as its weakness...
