Lets, collaborate a poem she asked and he said yes, lets do it 
and the result is what is written below-

Suddenly, my world was a silent dark void of nothingness,
and I wandered aimlessly lost and frightened;
then, through the silence came the beating of a drum,
so, I followed the sound into the corridors of my mind;
that labyrinth and saw my life story play out.
Soon, I was running the twisted passages weeping,
and there was silence again, and I was in a misty place of stone;
for a moment, the mist lifted and I saw my name deep engraved.

I screamed and screamed and began to run lost,
my hair full of shadows and then the beating drum began . . .
A man with piercing blue eyes, blue like the sea was talking;
'do not be afraid, my dear, open your eyes and I did-

She opened her eyes and I smiled with relief;
I'd lost too many patients already that day,
'not another, Lord, please'
no, this young one would live;
she is strong and had left the shadow world
with it's torturous labyrinth;
the beating of Death's drum wasn't as powerful as her will to live . . . 

Again, I recalled my own brush with oblivion,
said the surgeon with the piercing blue eyes, blue like the sea;
and a doctor had told me, to open my eyes-
