I Want


To stare out the window in a hospital room To have them watch you in disgust as they wait, as they worry for your health for your safety To have the doctors question your mentality your capability to not only thrive, but survive To have you stand To have you sit To have you stay By yourself in a room where they all watch you from a distance Where they all want you, need you to be okay, to live through it, the horror, the shame, You need to live
