In The Hospital

by Sorefromreality   Aug 5, 2007


My mind is spinning.
My hands keep shaking.
I can't help it.
But my heart is beating really fast.

My mouth feels dry.
And I'm horribly cold now.
My eyes keep darting side to side.
I don't know how to breathe.

I'm stumbling over my words.
And now she keeps asking me.
The same question.
"Why are you here?"

I don't know how to respond.
Will they take me away?
I need to escape.
This room is shrinking.
I must be going through detox.

She looks at me harder.
"What are you addicted to, that put you in here?"

I looked out the window and mumbled.

"Him."

    Excellent poem. It got me hooked into it at the start. At first it seemed like a scary movie but when I finished reading it, it didn't

    I really like this poem, especcially how you spaced out the last two lines. That really emphasized those lines.

    Excellent Job. 5/5
