Poem, Surviving

we are surviving
stuck in our dance
and the music plays everyday
and some voices are singing by chance
a melody, and we are sick as it plays

we are surviving
we will not eat
and the food comes to the table
and a voice gets louder to compete
a chant, and we are sick and not able

we are surviving
we’re trying to sleep
and people wake us with their dreams
and the voices run restless and deep
a river, and we rush helplessly by it seems

we are surviving
yet dying somehow
and we’re not saying goodbye
and the voices keep whispering now
a promise, and we’re not fighting as we slowly die
