I'm in between...........
   I am halfway between life and death.
       I listen to the voices of my family around me hoping and preying.
           Preying that I wake, that I wake up refreshed and healthy
I hear them sobbing at the sight of my closed eyes and want to wake.
   I want to wake up but my eyelids feel heavy and will not open.
I just want to open them long enough to tell them I was alright
but I was so tired at the same time.
I want to sleep and go to the quiet place in my dreams
the place with no worries and with happy faces.
