Specialest's birthday out turns to be at SGH
Still Jellies went ahead
Not knowing the severity
He thought whether to celebrate
The way, easy to walk
Yet, winding and full of slopes
At the security counter at the entrance
The patient's name, her mum, he know not
The 1st experience in ICU four days back
Puttting on rubber gloves n fibre glown
Grey's Anatomy, comes alive
Feels good but soon to be placed down
A room of chills but no frills
Needles, machines and beeps
Intertwined with the regular whish
Fear grips but faith leaps
Words fails and truth hurts
But love envelops, more warm than Bair Hug
Trampling voice and wanting to care
Brings out chinese songs of praise
Watching her, connecting with eyes
Intently making out what she struggle to verbalise
Failing, he held tight her left in my hands
Assuring her that everything is going to be all right
Going back again another day
Confidently knowing her name
Saying aloud 'Koh Ai Heok ward 45 bed 46
With ease he walked through the gate
Spending the afternoon there
Chatting and accompanying specialest and mum
Fiddlling with my new E63
Time few and I left
Then came the news last night
Through a SMS that was sent
'My mum hss passed on...'
Next, a call made to Kev in Phuket
Where are u now?
Specialest has yet to reply
You are deeply loved
Praying that you are holding up well
Still Jellies went ahead

Glad to have found you, able to talk about your mum's death.
