Array ( [sid] => 141786 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => What happened? [time] => 2008-04-22 14:01:38 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Wait, what happened?
Why am I here?
I don’t really know
My memories unclear.
I was at home
Where am I now?
I get that I’m here
But the question is how?
Whoa, wait a sec
My parents are crying
They say nothings wrong
I can tell that their lying
Why won’t you tell me?
The lights are so bright in this place
And what might I ask
Is this thing placed on my face?
Holy crap, I know where I am
But I still don’t know why.
Why won’t you just say it?
Daddy, your making me cry.
Don’t look at me like that
Your making me scared.
Why won’t you just tell me?
You would if you cared.
So then the doctor he told me,
Wait, I don’t understand.
I want to go home,
This is not what I planned.
Then I remembered,
I remembered the pain
Then the doctor came back
He said he’d explain.
Ok so I get it,
I can’t help it, I’m crying
I'll stop in a second
I’m sorry, I’m trying.
They say it’s alright
They say that they’ll wait
But I should calm down
I can’t get upset in this state
It’ll just make things worse
Then they looked up at a screen
And that’s when I saw
I was hooked up to that machine
It recorded my heartbeat.
A sound I previously ignored
A sound so important
That I now utterly adored
And I couldn’t help but think
When the machine was lacking any sound
And the feeling of that silence
Until they brought me back around
Whatever, this won’t change me?
Ill just live like nothings wrong
I know that things will now be hard
But I know ill get along
Ill hide this problem from the world
My hardships never will be shown
The downside is that ill have to deal
With the pain and crying all alone
But I know I’m strong and it’s all good
And ill even tell you why
Since I’m only seventeen,
Sorry but I refuse to die.

I was very touched by this. I've often times found myself in similar situations, only without the hospital. Very beautiful. Well done.
