Suspended Animation
by Brian Anderson, insurgent49


stuck in a perpetual slumber
you stay miles away
and yet 3 feet away you lie silently (in the shadows you are so beautiful)
in this light, I cannot see you
you are lost to the buzz of fluorescence, nurses, science
this game of waiting and waiting
it tries my patience so
such a stainless steel world of wires and tubes
holding fragile lives in a fine balance
You are a pristine angel
barred and bound by a technology beyond all we are
such a strange world are we
scurrying and hurrying all over
and to be trapped here
saved by medical science?
are you happy…
stuck in this perpetual slumber
in a limbo land
where dreams are your only reality
this is some justice
holding back our evolution
keeping us waiting and waiting
tell me you are playing in a field of dreams
tell me you are a child again
on the other side of that perpetual slumber
