The night is calm and shimmers 
in its moonlight coat. 
I sit and watch the ocean as I 
wrest with dark demons. 

The vision engulfs me; 
I see her sweet innocence 
etched on a pillow of death, 
awash with cruel tubes and all 
the paraphernalia of dying. 

I feel detached as I observe 
phosphorous ghosts surfing 
like green bobbing lanterns 
to a glistening alien beach 

Black angels bow my head, 
bend my back and hang 
huge moral weights about me. 
A lone gull keens my torment 

Am I to be her executioner? 
Must I play God? 
Juggling with destinies and 
barely conceived dreams. 

Where are you my child? 
My sweet innocent child. 
My mind is a black hole full 
of question marks and 
dark destroying God hatred. 

The ocean whispers to me 
and gently caresses my soul 
I know the right path… 
I knew all along 

I stand wearily, turn and 
look at the brilliant silhouette 
of the hospice. It calls to me. 
She calls to me. 

I stumble and cry out but 
the ocean has made me resolute. 
I make my way to the switch 
that will end her torment 
and begin mine.
