A Day in my Life

Bindiya V posted under PenMuse-30 Poetry on 2021-05-19



Days and nights seem the same As I wonder who is next Standing stuffy in the suit, I see who just came None of this they taught me in any text Someone's going to be wrapped up again today As I wonder who is next Gasping for breath, as the stretcher makes its way I hear she needs a ventilator Someone's going to be wrapped up again today As I plug in the tubes a few seconds later Praying to the Lord, may she take a breath Again, I hear she needs a ventilator As I struggle to revive her, I hear of death In the neighboring room of a young lad Praying to the Lord, may she at least take a breath Her condition gets better that makes me glad But cries I hear make me wonder if life's a game In the neighboring room of the young lad Days and nights seem the same.   Penmancy gets a small share of every purchase you make through these links, and every little helps us continue bringing you the reads you love!
