My Lifeline

Walking down the road I feel pain, In my chest falling on the ground. The darkness hides within me, Pain, suffering, powerless, To escape or leave. This body lies still, unmoving and, Silent as my life drains and no one hears me. The only noise you hear is the blood, As it slowly drips on the ground. I hear running towards me, She kneels beside me, She presses on my chest, All the pain miraculously leaves me. Don't worry help is on the way. I hear sirens, I'm holding her hand. She is my Lifeline, I won't let her go. She assured me I'm not going anywhere. Ambulance is here, I tell them no she comes with me. The medics tell me no one is here!! I kept telling myself I know she was here. She was holding my hand. The medics hand me a bloody cloth, This must be yours. Yes it's from that lady, my Lifeline and, Then I look up as the medic winks. I just smile wondering, as she disappears right in front of my eyes.

What an experience! well written poetic story of a miraculous moment in time. You were able to know that someone bigger than life is watching over each of us. God, an angel? We're not alone. Your poem may help many that read it. Smiles ~ Blessing, Bill P.S. Assuming you are an Okie from Bio. I lived in OKC during the 6th grade, but a Texas at heart.

Hello Okegirlsrock, I think thar=t she did not want to be seen. Yet the person did get the help she needs. So I think that she did not want to be seen. She is the guardian angel sent down to save her life. Hugs.

Yes that's exactly what I wanted to say. There are guardian angels everywhere.....they save us everyday. For instance a vehicle on the opposite side of the highway said they physically saw me hydroplaning and I should have flipped my vehicle but then the vehicle raised up off the ground move over and was set down in the median....haha. He came and pulled his vehicle inside the median and he looked at me and he said are you okay I said tell me that just didn't happen? He said oh yeah it happened...
