A doodle with words,
that's what I will do
I'll select them with
care
the best ones for you
the start of your
journey
there's hope and
there's cheer
the journey back then
contentment, some fear
fulfillment, and
pleasure
your massive white
gloves
incubation, ventilation
addiction and love
uv lights, and oxygen
blindfolds, and teddy
determination, and
fighting
we adored you already
tiny, so grateful,
happy, soft skin
excitement, commitment
family, begin.
Then carseat, your
blanket,
swaddled, amazed,
precious and fragile
intensely we gazed
onto the next part
protection and care
this changed very
quickly.
helpless, unfair
I need to add horror
to this part aswell
desperation, anxiety
scarred, can you tell?
mouth wash and frightened,
lost and alone.
Crying, broken,
phone contact with home
scared, and observing
heartbreak and pain
hurting, exhausted
your're fighting again :-(
then onto your travel
anguish, relief,
we needed Yorkhill
hopeful, belief
then into that ward
reassurance, so kind
questions and answers
going out of our minds
compassion, and gentle
handling you
music and memories
handprints there too.
Pleading and begging
tears, screaming cries
dignified treatments
that's what they tried
meetings, consultants
breaking, apart,
serious, surgery
to repair your heart
palative, loneliness
jags, drips and drugs
wishing and wanting,
suction, begging, and
hugs
your journey it ended
our has begun
no words to describe
'now'
my doodle is done.
