CONSCIOUS
I was in a nursing home
21 days before I realized
that Tim - this other guy -
was just staring - yet he
was conscious of everything -
but he couldn’t talk. He
couldn’t communicate.
It was then I realized
he was all eyes - totally
aware and I missed out
on 21 days of life with him,
but today things changed.
