Losing a Loved One

by Kristin   Jul 31, 2004


Along the road fast
Comes this little truck
Death awaiting him
Around this next turn
*************************
Front end smashed
This is a test. gone
No one in the truck
Blood on the dash
*************************
Body in the meadow
Covered in crimson
Lying unconscious
Darkness engulfed him
*************************
Flashing red and blue
Cars all around
Ambulance coming
Sirens blaring
*************************
Rushing down the street
Headed for the hospital
Rushing down the hall
Headed for the room
*************************
Needles in his arms
All machines on
Body in the stretcher
On the verge of dying
*************************
Doctors working fast
Nurses scurrying quickly
Trying to save this boy
From his very last breath
*************************
The boy stops breathing
All machines off
The doctor quietly speaks
Tells me "I'm sorry"
*************************
I cried at the hospital
I cried in the car
I cried every night
For the rest of my life
*************************
You have left me
But you're still with me in my dreams
You have left me
And I miss you
