CPR
You breathe in
I breathe out
there is just one difference
you breathe with doubt
your eyes are glazed
with staining tears
pain and frustration
and terrifying fears
I try to save you
but its no use
I scream and shout
but my voice is mute
I reach out to you
try to touch you
but you back away
why can't I love you?
I see you suffering
and I'm trying to fix it
But your to stubborn
and you won't listen
so I leave your side
as your breathing grows hard
and my heart breaks
into tiny glass shards
I feel your hand
as you reach out to me
silly child can't you see?
I loved you I did
but you lost your chance
and now you will never
have the last laugh.
