Loss

The young girl stares straight ahead
Eyes seeing nothing, her heart is filled with dread
Her stomach is full of butterflies ,as the adrenaline floods her veins
She doesn’t know what to think even, her head is full of pain
She takes her seat in the waiting room, her turn she’s sure is next
She has this sinking feeling right in her very chest
The nurse calls out her name and she jumps a little with fright
Her memories all come flooding back, all images of that night
She takes her clothes off gingerly and steps into the hospital gown
She turns around to face the bed and slowly lays herself down
Her heart is thumping through her chest, her soul is dying inside
Never has she felt this way as hot tears she tries to hide
The doctor walks into the room, not even glancing her way
Its just another job to him, another client who’ll pay
Her legs are spread before him, humiliation to add to pain
The nurse looks at her briefly as though wanting someone to blame
Her world shrinks and shimmers as the sedative pulses in her blood
Her future is suddenly ripped from her with only a little flood
She wakes to find it over, her aching belly a void
She puts her hands upon her heart, her world forever destroyed.
