Little death number four

A charlie horse close to my heart dear God no breath will go in
the pain is severe enough to call 911 and they came in tall men
all ten of them and they surrounded me with love caring love
asked questions put an oxygen mask over my mouth and nose
but oh oh the fear the fear to have to go so fast just go now
the plane is lifting off and their is not time for goodbye and
I am so so very afraid afraid of the door shutting on my life
right now right here in this hosptial of St Paul in Vancouver
yes Sheila Winifred Simpson -Brown died today in St Paul's
hospital at 11pm in the presence of her husband who held
her hand and she cried and cried for herself she just cried
herself to death and only minutes later she was in heaven
