Happy Now?

Folder: 
my poems

these wounds are to deep

they bleed as we speak

her soul is floating away

her body is cold and bloody

the floor is covered in red

she is leaving this place

you can’t save her

you couldn’t save her before

why do you cry

when it’s all your fault

you could have saved her

you could have helped her

she says a few final words

she says, “Mommy I love you”

“Mommy it’s not your fault”

“I want you to know that”

“You did the best you could do”

“Mommy I”ll always be with you”

“So don’t be scared for me”

“I’m ok and I’m happy now”

she starts to flatline

as the ambulance arrives

they try to save her

but they can’t

no one can

because she is happy now
