One More Step

One More Step

A Poem by Eve
"

This is about a friend of mine who is going through her own hardships.

"
She takes it one step at a time
Just like they told her
She goes to work and ignores the pain
Ignores how numb her legs are getting
Just like they told her

She doesn't let her guard down 
Because he needs her to
She comes home and pretends it leaving didn't kill her
Pretends she can still feel her hand in his
Because he needs her to

She doesn't tell them she's not okay
She doesn't tell them she's lost all feeling
And she doesn't tell him she loves him
Because it hurts too much 
To watch her husband die

Thank you.
The hardships only start with a sick and dying loved one...from there it fans out like a plague. Great voice and writing. So sad, but I loved it.
