A Poem Before Surgery
When I am dying, tell me the truth
I can take it
I got work to do
When I am dying, tell me stories
Break my heart
Don’t patronize me
When I am dying, tell me our history
I will say all the unsaid words
I got work to do
When I am dying, tell me about forgiveness
I have done people wrong
I shall make it better
When I am dying, tell me about gratefulness
I have people to acknowledge
I got work to do
When I am dying, tell me about leaving
I must say farewell
I want to touch them all
When I am dying, tell me I am dying
It is the Endgame
I got work to do
