Hope
Nothing, I can’t do anything.
As I hear you moan and grown…
As you wail out “Aye” multiple times…
As you create silence and all I hear is the machine helping you live…
But is that true?
Nothing, I can’t do anything.
As I see you lay and stay still…
As you wither away…
As you turn into nothing but skin and bones…
But is that true?
I can do something.
I will smile and show you strength.
I’ll stay hopeful.
You will never see me sad and in tears.
And that is true.
