As I lay,

On the operating table.

I can hear the doctor say,

She will be unable.

To laugh or talk,

To run or walk.

Smile or blink,

Not even to think.

I lay there,

As they pull the drip out.

I can see you there,

I can hear you shout.

I can hear your pain,

I can see it in your teats.

I just wish I could hold you,

And rid you of your fears.

As I grow tired,

I close my eyes.

I look back on my life,

And all the good times.

I slowly forget,

Trying to remember you.

How when I was down,

You were the one I ran to.

I fly away,

Think about it and see.

You weren't torturing me,

Only setting me free.
