Description
When I pass himLike I do, every day
I move away from his bloodshot eyes, thin bluish skin, wild red hair
It's become habit
But today, I don't know why, I walked near him
Unconcious decision, or just forgetfulness
His childlike, sleeping form, so thin and frail
Woken simply by my footsteps
I didn't mean to,
But I did
He stared at me, eyes red and swollen
To no one, to everybody, to me
In anguish,
'Is the treatment over?'
He sleeps where there is shelter, they say
I know better
He sleeps here, at the abandoned hospital
For a reason
To find treatment, like the thousands of the past
Whatever he has, it's getting worse
It's colder, and colder
He's paler, sicker, thinner
His treatment is nearly over
Sick with the fact that I am helpless
I want to scream
Yell
Whisper
Cry
Your treatment will be over soon
I passed him again today
It was so cold, cold enough to see your breath, wear a winter coat
He laid there, just a thin shirt and jeans
No breath I could see
I stood there for seconds, but it felt like hours
I'm not ashamed to say I cried
His treatment is over now
