​

Like a deer in the headlights, I stood there frozen, 
She was still, yet I could see her panic, 
Just a second ago so happy for the help I had given, 
Now so dreary, I thought I was manic, 
The right of her face hanged, as if it were being scraped off, 
The Eyes, O’ the Eyes, so frantic, 
The Nurse when I told her, she gave me a scoff, 
“She’s stable, she’s fine,” she thought I was too dramatic, 
Yet when she walked in the room, she knew I was right, 
The patient, an old lady, left there helpless, 
She a rushed into surgery, the doctors used all their might, 
Though, they tried there best, she left the ICU Lifeless, 
Those eyes will always haunt me, 
My dreams and nightmares, I will never be free.
