Jake and Emma

Crimson red fills the bowl and

I think I’m going to be sick.

With every thing spinning so

fast I cannot breath. 

Walls closing in and everything

fades. Fashes of light come by, one,

by one. Feeling sleepy not knowing

your name. Not knowing mine. 

There it is. my favorite thing of all this,

 ah the feeling of pain is gone

from before and new form enters me. 

Laying here waiting for you to

come home. I open my eyes and see

flashes of you and me from

before you went. You walk inside. 

You call to me and wait for an answer. 

You hear small light breaths coming

from the bathroom. thinking it is me,

you walk down the hall with a smile. 

the kind that makes your

knees go week. You walk in.

Oh god, is all you can think. 

I’m trying to look up at you but

I can’t move. a cold chill

comes over me as you pick me up. 

You say we are going

to the hospital and that

everything will be ok.

 You rush me in.

 Blood running down.

 The nurse rushes you to a bed so

I can lay down. I can hear you

asking her something.

But I can’t make out the words. 

I feel something cold and

wet touch my face then my arm. 

I feel the prick of a sharp

object go in my right arm. 

The nurse says that I need stitches

because the wound is to deep. 

I feel the thread go in and

out through my arm.

 And a band-aid go around and around.

After I have slept for two

days they let you in. 

I can move

again and open my eyes. 

You say that I got 76 stitches because

the cuts were way to deep.

And that I almost died. 

I pull off the band-aid and look. 

I see over 20 cuts and begin

to cry. You tell me its ok and

we will get some help.

About 5 years later.

 We have two to deal with

ourselves. 

Jake and Emma.

 A beautiful baby boy and baby girl. 

The scars are still there.

 Some times I wish

I could go back 5 years and

change what

I did do so

I can make it right.
