Question: Is it still hate if it only lasts a moment!?
I wanted the wind
to come and take her
she had cancer and the veins
in her head were hungry snakes
she kept her hands folded when she spoke
her mother had been crying
constant
she had been running from misery
for too too long
and I was nobody!.
The Little Girl spoke to me with smiles
and tiny hands
as beautiful… as beautiful…
Suddenly I hated
the Little Girl Liar
she could not speak she could not
live
she was not happy
she was a liar
and I wanted to be the wind
but I was stamped into the death house floor
in a room in a hospital in Hell!.
I wanted the wind
I am shame
I no longer hate
I have seen the kind of courage
that does not recognize
itself, it speaks
she speaks
she knows
she has been infected with hope
she will die
with hope in her hands,
and truth on her lips,
as beautiful…as beautiful!.!.!.

who accept death with courage beyond their years!.

This is utterly poignant yet has a startling impact!. The rush of hate, the influx of shame and then the resolution of hope!. When my grandmother died, I saw dignity and "the kind of courage that does not recognize itself"!. Yes, it was beautiful, sorrowful but beautiful!. Thank you!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
Get out of my mind!.
These images, those memories were never meant to be shared or even acknowledged, locked away for ever in the deepest vault!.!.
yet once again you found them, called them up and out!. Now they wash over me, crashing like a rough sea!.!.
and I don't want to see those faces again!.
The darkness calls because of hope!.!.
yet hope was the only false memory!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Working in a Nursing Home I see and feel this al the time!. The day my Mom died, I sat at her bedside and begged her too just go!. That it was her time!.

Is this 'hate' being misdirected!? It seems as though you did not want this girl to go, so in your sadness and disappointment, for a fleeting moment, you accused her of lying!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

I have read your poem over and over all day and i read it again!. Death comes whether we are ready or not!. She was brave!.You wanted death to take her swifly as the winds!. But it doesnt work that way!.No matter what we say to a dying person they will die!. Comforting words are not only for the person but US as well thinking that wind will not blow!.No it wasnt a lie to them but a lie to ourselves !. You wanted the wind to settle your soul make you feel good inside yourself and hopefully pass it on to her!.We all do this same thing in times of sorrow!.Willing ourselves inside to think they will be ok!.But when their last breathes we are succumed by that hard blowing wind!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
