Sitting in the hospital waiting room
Atmosphere filled with pain and gloom
Weeping inside those invisible tears
A torrent of emotions mostly of fear
Looking around I see concern in sad eyes
Waiting patiently for the doctors apprise
When he arrives my knees feel weak
Voice has been stolen I can no longer speak
He slowly walks over there’s a buzz in my head
Difficult to focus on the words that he said
Six months to a year and she’ll be gone
It’s inconceivable he has to be wrong
As if by detonation my heart explodes
Thousands of demons on me are bestowed
If prayers are the answer a million are sent
My shouts can be heard a son’s pitiful lament
Very beautifully said, T James, so sad, so full of emotion. God be with you Ron
Its heart-wrenching poem......my friend. Expressed with a simple eloquence that actually accentuates the agony....
Oh wow very powerful and sad. What a heard ordeal to be faced with losing a loved one. I am so Sorry...
