you lay there ,
looking almost lifeless ,
i can just barely tell your breathing ,
your struggling ,
to breathe ,
to eat ,
to live ,
just barely hanging on ,
You slipped and let go of it ,
nurses rush in ,
i can't move,
i can't speak ,
i can't cry,
i just stand ,
and watch you lay there,
lifeless ,
you have the strength ,
i know you can pull through ,
please , i dont want you to go.
you cant ,
They bring you back ,
and for the first time ,
you open your eyes ,
and look right at me ,
I cant move ,
i stand there ,
not knowing what to do ,
Your lips move ,
but you dont make a sound ,
but i know what you want to say ,
the nurse grabs my shoulder ,
and tells me its time to go,
i kiss your forhead ,
and begin to walk out ,
but before leaving ,
i look back at you ,
laying in that hospital bed ,
and say 6 simple words ,
that mean so much ,
I love you too Uncle Rob (L)

Wow. You drew the scene very well. It is moving, and tender, sweet and sorrowful. Was that goodbye?
he survived .. thank god. I watched him be brought back to life.
Thanks for saying so, I am very thankful to hear it. It is a sweet piece for your love. I like it.
sad , and nice
