Wishing for a Visitor

White walls and fine smiles

A place of peace of mind

Drip, drip, like dry tears

Falling through weak veins

Beep, beep, the beating heart

Lonely and cold without blankets

the nurses, they know my fate

Still they bring me laughter and food

Patter, patter, the rain falls

Even God seems to cry out

Tick, tick, the clock screams

Awaiting my own to halt
