appendix

my brother's appendix burst...
his voice sounded like a sad child...
the morphine slurred his words...
and my fear trembled mine...
i wish he knew that i was so sorry...
for leaving...
for not being there...
for being selfish...
for not knowing what to do...
ever...
i don't want him to hurt anymore...

shalom.
