My Love left this world.

She left her suffering…

And her pain…

In the world

Where it belongs

But when she left

She gave her body to…

Medical Science.

She thought they might use it

To cure disease

Or discover how she fought it

Fought it toe to toe

For so many decades.

I could have told her

It had nothing to do with

Medical Science.

She must have known that

But she didn’t know

What it would do to me

To know her body was still

Being assaulted by

Medical Science.

Medical Science which failed her

Again and again

Until I grew too old and too tired

To adequately defend her

And they slowly and finally

Killed her

Killed

Her will to fight

And survive.

And when the pain was completely

Unbearable

They decided she should die.

But, thankfully

Jesus blessed her

Rescued her

From the horrors

Of this world.

And now she lives eternally

In the light and love

Of her Savior.

Lord, bless her always.
