Something Pink Something White
By Prospero53223
When I awoke this morning form the nightmare I had dreamed,
I had hoped to find myself safe in my own bed.
But the pain is real, the dream was truth.
It just played over and over in my head.
The IV,'s the cast, the swelling in my brain,
The lights so bright it hurts my eyes.
Tears run and fall down my face as I wish for death,
As I ask myself why am I alive?
That day that awful day I wanted to die.
You saw what I am why did you not let me die?
Though I remember something while I dreamt,
I heard your voice, it was heaven sent.
I see you there, though you look like a blur.
You sat with me awhile I remember,
You thanked God, I heard you whisper.
Then as you left I saw on my night stand,
Something pink, Something white.
The meaning of those roses I shall always treasure.
