Her Last Breath

Her last breath If you would believe She died twice There was no pulse Not even a heart beat Yet she exhaled a gurgling air Her last breath….. They took her by ambulance They put her on a machine to breath She had no brain now, she has no life now She’s not in pain now... Why would they do this? Cause more pain for me, give me hope To watch me hurt even more Her last breath….. I took her off that machine So she could breathe for free She’s not in pain now... I took her home where she belonged To die once more in my arms Her last breath has gone. In my arms is where she belongs….. G. Goodwin 3/16/2007
