This is from a experience I felt 3 years ago... I do hope you like it...
I do hope you liked the poem ^^ I did go over it quite a bit and had a few others read over it...
The sight
Those painful endlessly gazing eyes
Its hard to bear
His body in a tragic state
Lost and longing
Was there something I could do
Nothing
I could not keep him from this pain
Why did I stand there
My legs felt like collapsing
Wanting to break and fall beneath me
I had only been standing there for minutes
Not hours
Days
Months
Years
Only minutes…
Am I laughing
Did he think ever so
But
Why is this so
He was terrified
The infection was spreading
With no hope coming
Was I longing
Or am I failing
Blood draining
That face paleing
The EMT’s passed by
The long for him
Seemed to fade
Was he dying
Am I crying
Do I care
I could not comprehend
Nothing I could do
Standing
Watching
Mangled
Destroyed
After what seemed to be forever
I stepped into that
Old
God-Forbiddening thing
It was his truck
Left near the road
Sitting
Rusting
Decaying
We were at the hospital
Watching the dying
The sighing
Too much for me to bear
I knew this was the end
My Grandfather
Lost to the place
Which seems unknown
The only place for his peace
His only redemption
I do hope you liked the poem ^^ I did go over it quite a bit and had a few others read over it...
