I FELT LIFE

 

I feel life

A life that’s gone

So many different

People but I remember no one

Rocking in my chair in a stale room

They’re playing Angels by Robbie Williams

For Christ’s sake just stick me in the ground

 

I felt life

A life that’s gone

The nurses see tears in my eyes

But each is for a loved  one ,

They  will never know

I’m gone .

Plenty of resonance here for anyone who has
had the pain of seeing a parent in care - and
the feelings of finality that the unwanted reality
induces.
