This time
a long wait
a spefic date
longing to meet her
the numbing needle in my back
professional hands
small talk
and a daughter
a moment, a cry
my temperature is dropping
heart racing
rummaging inside
seeing her, of course, that face is her
and I am wheeled away into recovery
shaking teeth chattering
blankets and a heater for her, they say
she's too cold
trying to get out to see her
