Visiting Hours

It’s not as sterile as it should be

sitting on the bottom step

of the first floor,

you’re waiting and you notice

the dust and dirt,

it should bother you but it doesn’t,

there are other things to think about

and it’s not like before,

with blood on your sleeves,

this is better, you are better.

These visiting hours will come and go

quicker than any other time

you’ve sat in a hospital,

holding on to what makes you happy

this time wrapped up in pink and white.
