Halfway to hell
Halfway to hell
I stood stunned at the motionless body out from the operating theatre
A stonelike wall of words I found like if chewing my throat
Forbidden to speak out my innermost thoughts
Just as well for fear climbed up my throat to keep me from breathing
There around were voices in my head telling me we were losing her
I refused to hear the voice deep within me
Was not giving up on her as yet
I had to be strong to make her feel strong
Prayers were offered in silence and the angels did watch over her
From down to just bones yet she never doubted God's healing power
The days went into weeks and I to months
Until she finally got to get to her loved ones
She stands tall as a nursing officer so energetic and healthy
Her key role to served and not to be served
She meet her patients with a living caring heart
At home is a mother and a wife who makes sure all her family members eat
She has grown wings of faith to fly through the storms of life
She is not giving up on life she will press on
Death tried to steal her physically but mentally and spiritually she was protected
She has seen death at her doorstep
But has brushed it aside and says nothing of it
She is a savivor
She is a rock
A tree standing tall
Will do so for years to come
