TITLE: Alone
CRITIQUE: Yes.
STATUS: Complete.
SUMMARY: I wrote this - not based on a real life event - as if my brother was hit by a car. Knock on wood that he isn't - it would suck. And no, I exaggerated on the wife part, he's not married.
OTHER: I don't love it or anything, but it's okay.
CRITIQUE: Yes.

Alone
Alone in the waiting room,
Waiting for time to pass me by.
I can't wait to see you,
And I'm trying not to cry.
The time has gone so quickly,
Since we were young and wise,
I knew that we would grow up,
So why am I surprised?
You laughed at me, you made me better,
You said I'll never let her go.
So I want you to know.
I'll always care about you,
Even when you might be dying.
So come on and get better,
I am so sick of crying.
The car could have swerved
In the other direction.
And I guess I've learned,
Why? is always the question.
You've been sick for awhile,
Is it weeks or days?
And I'm crying so hard,
I feel myself wash away.
You laughed at me, you made me better,
You said I'll never let her go.
So I want you to know.
I'll always care about you,
Even when you might be dying.
So come on and get better,
I am so sick of crying.
You were nice - okay, not always,
Isn't that what a brother's for?
I wasn't always ever perfect,
But who could've loved you more?
Your wife comes in, says - is he better?
As the nurse walks by.
I don't know how to answer,
I just comfort as she cries.
I'll always care about you,
Even when you might be dying.
So come on and get better,
I am so sick of crying.
