The End

by DeAnna   Mar 30, 2005


My heart stopped beating
and i fell to the ground
i had no warning
i heard no sound
i guess everyone panicked
and called 9-1-1
there really was no hope for me
my life might-as-well have been done
i don't remember anything
until after this time
why did this happen to me?
i didn't commit any crime
i remember waking up
to an empty, quiet room
i knew it was over
i had met my doom
but i found myself
in the hospital bed
i realized i was still alive
i wasn't yet dead
there were lots of machines
and cords on my arms
the doctor came in and saw me
that set off many alarms
he called to the hall
in, many others came
yeah, I'm still alive
and faith is to blame, but
i felt to tired
and very weak
i couldn't move
and i couldn't speak
but everyone seemed surprised
to find me alive
i couldn't see any faces, but the clock
it was late, almost five
i tried to go back to sleep
i really needed to rest
i guess i slept while they recorded
and ran more tests
i remember waking
from a deep deep sleep
and hearing everyone's
cries and weeps
i remember holding someone's hand
and prayed everything to be fine
we had to go to God
is this a good or bad sign?
everyone still crying
i drifted off again
i couldn't stay awake
and all i felt was pain
i remember waking and hearing
the doctor behind the door
he didn't sound happy
something was wrong for sure
i could barely hear him
but i do remember
he said, "she's not going to make it
she has a deadly cancer."
i couldn't believe it
this had to be a lie
I'm only 15
it's not my time to die
but i heard that so clearly
that's what the doctor said
this was the end for me
i was soon-to-be dead
i remember his words
they kept playing back in my mind
is there any way to fix this?
can we just hit rewind?
but no, i heard him
so loud and so clear
i knew then
that the end was very near
so i talked to God
and asked him why
i eventually went to sleep again
but, somehow, i didn't cry
so one final word
to God i would send
"I love you, God, Amen."
and that was The End.

This didn't really happen.. it's a dream that i keep having.. but i thought i'd write about it... i hope you like it
