A Wisp of Hope
I spent seemingly endless hours
Just lying there on that metal table
Shivering
My will to live
Slowly dying out
Like embers fallen from a bonfire
I felt hopeless
Yet at the same time
I felt nothing.

How could I?
The end of the one good thing in my life
Had brought on the beginning
Of my very own end.

I wasn't sure how your father felt,
Hope.

He seemed to be masking his emotions
Especially when he was aware
Of my watching him.

I couldn't tell
Whether he felt any sort of
Regret
Or pity
Towards his test subject,
But was too frail
To question him
With anything more than
A simple,
Expressionless stare.

I lay there
In a daze
Hiding from myself
The painful truth;
That the end was nigh.
I could feel myself fading away
All the light
Disappearing from within me.

And that was when I started hearing your voice inside my head.
I thought I was going crazy,
Simply losing my mind
Because as a wise person once told me:

"Don't believe everything you hear."

But I wasn't crazy.
Delirious, maybe,
But not crazy.

I
had a wisp of your voice
Inside my head
And somehow I knew
That it wasn't going away
Anytime soon.

For even though the darkness
Was closing in on me,
I still had a pinprick of light
That little wisp of hope
To guide my way.
