81 - Everything's Fine..... Hell On A Thursday..... (Part Ii) Poem by nicola burkett

Everything is going to be fine
And for a split second I believe
But that doesn't stop me thinking
That my Dad is going to leave

Like ground hog day
I’ve been here before
Pale faced and panicking
The Paramedics at the door

The site of him helpless
Fitting in his bed
Flashes of senseless guilt
Running through my head

Since I lost my Nan
I can't handle things like this
I don't think I could go on
If I had someone else to miss

Another waiting room
Sitting watching the time
Another emotional poem
Another painful rhyme

I try and stay positive
I try and keep myself strong
But as soon as good times happen
It seems to all go wrong.
