Get Better

You have to open your eyes
and see who misses you.
Your mum loves warm hugs
and I heard you like them too.

Many people want to see you
wake up and get out of 
this recovery room.
This is not the best place to sleep
nor to talk about truth.

Please get well soon.
You still need to fight!
Trust in second chances,
For we don't want to cry.

You need to live for justice.
That's what you deserve.
There's no need to leave soon.
For we want you to get better.
