Eyes are greeted with white
Questions and words boom loudly
Eyes flicker shut
“You’re safe don’t worry”
Eyes open again
Glancing about fancy suits appear
One smiles looking at the child below
A white lady rushes in looking about
Beeping echoes through foggy noises
“Dante”
A voice breaks through with concern
It’s a suit
His tie is green
A dark green like the trees
His words flow over the child
Falling on deaf ears
“Did you save me?
The child’s voice breaks the silence
“You could say that”
The suited man says
The other suits stand at the door
Green tie is seated next to the bright white bed
The child smiles
Bruises marr the small face
A casted arm and leg
Tired blue eyes express tiredness
The child falls back to sleep
