I can feel your pain
From your ghostly eyes
Your bone thin faces
Foreshadows a grim future
I pray for you
To regain strength
To continue loving
To continue caring
To continue believing
To continue breathing

I wrote this poem when my friend was afraid her father was going to die. He had cancer, and despite that he was in hospices and had written his final will, a miracle occurred. He survived.
