I never knew that my days would be paused,
Inside these walls so high.
Until then life never seemed so miserable.
And I lay on the bed,
Staring at the bare white walls,
Waiting for death to take me away.
Pain was squeezing out the life left inside me,
I couldn't breathe, I couldn't see.
And when all the rays of hope turned dark,
There stood by me,
The angels of real life.
The empathy in their eyes,
Were as pure as their white coats.
I felt life reviving back in me,
The pain was slowly leaving me.
The rays of hope were returning,
It pierced the darkness of the disease.
Finally, I was back again in my life's track,
Proving that this too can be survived.
