The unpayable debt that I owed you [Explored]

Feel

 

I wish that I had known in

That first minute we met

The unpayable debt

That I owed you

 

Because you'd been abused

By the bone that refused you

And you hired me

To make up for that

 

And walking in that room

When you had tubes in your arms

Those singing morphine alarms

Out of tune

 

They had you sleeping and eating

And I didn't believe them

When they called you

A hurricane thundercloud

 

When I was checking vitals

I suggested a smile

You didn't talk for a while

You were freezing

 

You said you hated my tone

It made you feel so alone

So you told me

I had to be leaving

 

But something kept me standing

By that hospital bed

I should have quit but instead

I took care of you

 

You made me sleep all uneven

And I didn't believe them

When they told me that there

Was no saving you

Done
