Why Did You Leave Again

Wrote this after a stay in the hospital, I was in intensive care with Pneumonia. They say I was dreaming. I think that My husband had come for me. Why he left me here I don't know.

As I lay in the hospital bed,
with a fever of 104'
I was so sick, and could not breathe,
I saw you standing by the door.

You were strong and tall, just as I remembered,
with a beautiful smile just for me.
I was so happy, It was my day!
Then you turned and said it's not to be.

You turned your back and started to walk,
I cried out to you, but you did not hear.
I tried to get up and run after you,
You turned and said you have to stay dear.

How could you come and turn and leave,
My heart ripping in agony.
It hurt worse then when you died,
What were you trying to do to me.

I have been waiting for so long,
for you to come for me.
My pain would finally come to an end,
There is something you want me to see.

Now I am back in my living hell,
waiting again for you.
For the time you will come and take my hand,
to lead me away to the promised land.
