I lay quietly
Breathing slowly
Voices quietly whisper around me
I know what they say
I have no worries as they do

I know the truth
I am dying
I have regrets
Regrets for choices I didn't make
For opportunities I didn't take
But I lived
And that
THAT
Is a glorious thing

And so I lay quietly
Waiting
Sighing

"Is she...?"
"No.."
"No, watch her..."
"She's still..."

Silence


Back
