I never thought
I'd be sitting in a hospital
listening to time go by
second by second.

I never thought
I'd see her in that much pain
with no way of escaping it.

I never thought
that of all people
I'd want to claw out
the eyes' of doctors and nurses.

I never thought
I'd want to stay in a hospital
for a longer period of time.

I never thought
I'd have to fight the world
to be by her side.

But if I have to
I will do this forever
because, to me,
she's well worth the fight.
I wrote his while I was sitting next to my best friend who was in the hospital recovering from the surgeon's mishap. Before, they said it was a simple and easy surgery. After, they said she'd never be able to use her left arm. I've never forgiven the surgeon.

I'm sure anyone sitting in a hospital next to someone they loved one who's suffering would feel the same.

the line of never thinking of wanting to stay in a hospital for longer is so so true. my mother was in the hospital this last year and it was strange wanting to sit in a hospital for so long but it was so worth it.
