Live On

I enter the room.
Spotting your shrivel body
Placed on a hospital bed.
Motionless.
I closed my eyes and
Took your hand, whispering:

Let my talent inspire you.
To open your eyes.
Let my very words
Bring life back to you.
Fill you up, make you breathe again.
Spread the story beyond the light.
May the images dance inside your eyes.

No movement from you.

A tear slides down my cheek.
I rest my head on the bed.

Don't give up now.
It's not your time, not yet.

Still no sign of movement.

Just know these words are for you.
Live free.
Be one.
Live on.

[Glen Yumang Manese]

There is always hope in spite of despair..and this verse gives that in the lines...you open this with a prayer of sort...and then take the moment in with a positive outlook...
