Those Days...

Those days were clearer now..
    Pain lurking around, calling on often
Amidst dizziness of fear unknown
    Rather, fear for the unknown
Days were shrouded in white then... 

Now the 'vision' is sharper
      I can see the smile of my nurse,
Sense the needles moving beneath my skin,
     Hear her instructions better.
Feel the smell of coffee dissolving into
     The sourness of disinfectants...

The past lingers 
             with all its life...
    When my present is unknown...
Its not hide and seek
    Its an absence
Till I move into something new..

Here, they come to dissect me
     To prolong life
The theatre is on...
      Numbness piercing me
Flesh is frozen
     Yet I see the green masks
With their surgical blades
      On the the table I am sleeping...
           A sound sleep..

  1. As I go through the lines, I feel the numbness enveloping my whole self...."the past lingers with all its life" !!!! ..I am tired of saying good about you every time :(....but can't help being true to what I felt...You are blessed by a fairy with the magic wand of poetry.....poetry with depth in a world throbbing with superficiality

    they come to dissect me to prolong life !! ........Dear Lech, continue dissecting thoughts..:)
