She sits next to me for hours.
She loves me, that I know.
She thinks I am dead.
She talks to me.
She thinks I can't hear her but I do.
She thinks I can't hear her crying.
She thinks I can't feel her tucking a strand of hair behind my ear.

She wants the best for me.
She wants me to be safe.
She wants me to die peacefully.
She wants to be there and watch the life fade out of me.
She is waiting for a sign.
She wants me to try to tell her that I am alive.
But I can't.
