Painful Love - Visitor's Sad Love Poem

by Zeena Olson
(Calgary, AB, Canada)

your tender loving eyes so soft and sad.
you know nothing as to why you're here:
you are oblivious
I cry while you lie in bed; dying.
all the memories of you and I, have all flown away from your mind.
your pain cuts through me like a knife as I sit and watch you die
I beg god for help
but can he hear?
your life is almost over; too young to die

and my life is coming to an end too
because when you hurt, I hurt
and when you die
I die too.
