“Lying on the
White Bed”
Lying on the white bed, my head feels weary
Waiting for what’s going to come
Distantly hearing a beeping
Waiting for what’s
going to come
A body of lead, truck to my head
Waiting for what’s going to come
Frequently
breathing shallow breaths
Waiting for what’s going to come
Closing my eyes with fear in my heart
Waiting for what’s going to come
Thinking
about all the bad things I’ve done
Waiting for what’s
going to come
Seeing my loved ones remorsefully grieving
Waiting for what’s going to come
Feeling the cold sheet underneath me
Waiting
for what’s going to come
Drowsiness and fatigue taking over
Waiting for what’s going to come
Drifting to sleep, closing my eyes
Waiting for what’s going to come
Hearing voices and seeing
light
