I cough
And wheeze
And shake
And dread this curseI wait
Alone on my hospital bed
Waiting for a cure
Waiting for someone
Waiting for a miracleI lie awake
on my death bed
Waiting
waiting
waitingSuddenly, I see your eyes
Then your face
Then your arms,
wrapped around meTelling me
"You breathe in plain air
And your lungs turn them into beautiful flowers
You let out beauty.
You'll make it out."
