Devon

Devon Richard Poulin, my eight year old cousin, went into cardiac arrest two days ago.

Devon, what are you doing?
Entering this place,
Very well knowing I can’t see your face,
On other’s words I have to trust,
Not knowing for sure if you’ll be okay.

Remember all those times we had,
I do, for sure, but now with this…this
Cardiac Arrest thing,
How can you still be the same?
Are you going to still be my best friend?
Ready to go on a trip out that door?
Do you have a choice anymore?

Pneumonia started this all,
On the day before yesterday,
Unknowing, we continued our vay-cay,
Leaving you to go through this without us.
I can’t lose you, kid, this isn’t the end.
No, I can’t lose my best friend.

Author's Note

Hi all,
So my cousin Devon reportedly went into Cardiac Arrest two days ago because he had pneumonia. I don't know what's going on or anything, so I decided to write a poem.
