GRIEF Poem: Cardiovascular ICU., by Aaron Mcdaniel

I left part of my heart on the CVICU floor
Somewhere between room 6 and room 4
And it has been missing everyday since.
Someone mentions your name and I wince,
Seeing you in that bed, I couldn’t even look you in the eyes…..
All I remember is holding my big sister as she cries,
The blaring of those alarms,
And all the IV’s sticking out of your arms.
Because somewhere between room 6 and room 4
I left part of my heart on the CVICU floor.
