'Please Don't Tell'
By Blythe
The hall so narrow, the room so cold It will hurt a little, she was told The bed so plain, she hated the smell She confided in the nurse, 'Please don't tell' Into the gown she slowly dressed As the doctor poked and pressed 'Young lady are you sure you've made your choice?' 'Yes, sir,' trembled in her voice It was over before she knew it; the procedure had been done Her heart is heavy now; she feels it weighs a ton She told the nurse, 'Don't get me wrong, this I don't condone' 'But it was the only way, I could not bear alone' In life there are certain choices we just have to make And just the same come the consequences for the risks we take Written January 15th, 2002 © on Jan 14 2002 04:11 PM PST 18 • 0 • 1
