I sit at the edge of your hospital bed
fighting back tears
subconsciously watching urine drip into a bag
At the foot you your bed
I know that if I let even a single tear flow
I will never be able to stop
I manage to remain composed
At least until the water of the shower hits me
Then I burst into tears praying, begging for this to be a dream
I cry myself to sleep
I return to the hospital
Forcing myself to remain composed
If I cry now your mother will begin crying more
and your friend will feel even more guilty
I force myself to stay composed
But I desperately want to collapse in to someone's arms
but I must be strong
I MUST BE STRONG
