Hurt
I open my eyes,Just to see,
You were standing there next to me.
I look around,
Just to see,
You were looking straight at me.
I tried to sit,
Just to see,
You would not let me.
I asked,
"Why won't you let me sit?"
And you said,
"You hurt yourself,
You're in the hospital,
Hooked up to tube,
How could I let you sit up and die?"
I asked, stupidly,
"Why would I die?"
You sigh and answer,
"These tubes are keeping you alive. If you sit up,
They'll unattach, and you'll die."
"You care?"
"Yes, I care about you."
"Then I won't sit up until I'm fine."
