Second Chance...You Made Me Live Again (It's Been 5 Years) Poem by Ging Taping
Second Chance...You Made Me Live Again (It's Been 5 Years)
Ging.., ging! ', someone is calling
She tap my shoulder and gently shakes me
Groggy....My eyes rolled trying to figure out
A lady in green standing in front of me.
She smile at me
'How do you feel now? ' She ask
'Where am I? '
'You are here inside the recovery room
'You have been transferred from the operating room
your operation was successful..
Congratulations'....
I stayed in the hospital for 9 days
they said i am strong in a way..
i tried to be okey and be well
i was scared of my hospital bill
each passing day is not easy
whenever i saw the scar i felt pity
really sad and upset why me? why me?
i struggled with depression
i cried for no reason
i am helpless i am useless..
no one can go near..i throw them whatever i hold..
i shouted out i'm out of control
Thank God i recovered from my nightmare..
that i thought i couldn't bear..
you lifted up my spirit
you took me away from the valley of death
and let me live again..
I know i only live once but You give me a second chance..
I thank You Almighty Father
every morning still I hear the crow of the rooster
l can see the flock of birds in the meadow
I still able to observe where the river flows
the water laps on my feet
I can hear the tick tack of my heartbeat(prosthetic valve)
I know I am just a passers by
but for now I enjoy my stay..
Note: Please read You made me live again.Thank you

Glad the operation was a success. A scary moment indeed it must have been, but you've come through strong, and with an incredible story to tell. Well wishes and good health be yours Ging

flock of birds in the meadow song of the leaves in the shadow beat of the heart in the loneliness kept as sweet as we overcome an operation
