Hospital

Everything went silent 
The monitors and doctors panicked voices 
everything went dead
I knew I was dying 
The first night is the worst
Doctors not knowing if you'll really make it
Stress levels rising
Hearts breaking
Tears being cried all over the country in my name
Pressure rising 
Everything went quiet
As I stopped to breathe

A Moment In Time

A moment in time
Years long
Yet so shorter than the blink of an eye 
A moment in time
A heart racing, up until it gives its last beat
Lungs breathing hard, then stopping all together 
A moment in time 
A wreckage seen through the ruins
A broken heart and broken mind
A moment in time
