I fell in love with you all over again in a hospital waiting room I fell in love with the deep purple under your eyes like delicate bruising I fell in love with the paleness of your lips from lack of nutrients I fell in love with the way you moved slowly and achingly wrapped in a white blanket the color of your skin I fell in love with the deep crimson of your blood as it ran through your IV I fell in love with you again as I laid with you in the hospital bed at 3 am we’d been there for 10 hours and you had a little too much morphine in your system and a lack of sleep when you pulled me close and said “I could really see myself marrying you some day” and that was right before you kissed me with your dye stained lips so they could see your insides better on the x-ray I fell in love with you again when you looked at me with your big hazel eyes that turn black around the edges You said god had sent me from heaven An angel to watch over you I'm not too sure about that but what I do know is: I Do

Marriage In A Hospital
I fell in love with you all over again in a hospital waiting room I fell in love with the deep purple under your eyes like delicate bruising I fell in love with the paleness of your lips from lack of nutrients I fell in love with the way you moved slowly and achingly wrapped in a white blanket the color of your skin I fell in love with the deep crimson of your blood as it ran through your IV I fell in love with you again as I laid with you in the hospital bed at 3 am we’d been there for 10 hours and you had a little too much morphine in your system and a lack of sleep when you pulled me close and said “I could really see myself marrying you some day” and that was right before you kissed me with your dye stained lips so they could see your insides better on the x-ray I fell in love with you again when you looked at me with your big hazel eyes that turn black around the edges You said god had sent me from heaven An angel to watch over you I'm not too sure about that but what I do know is: I Do
