Meet Me In The Hallway.

"SHE DOES NOT WANT THAT!" I enrage fighting for what Dianna wants.

"We need to Harry." Her tired dad replies. "No. There must be more time."

I remember like it was yesterday holding Dianna in bed, when she bared her all. She is fearless when expressing her fear. Back in California she cried and told me specifically she did not want to go back to her old life. But now time is fleeting but I need a bit more. I want to keep my promise that everything will be ok, that she won't be on a machine. Why is time such an enemy.

My plan I made the day after meeting her is not panning out and I am frustrated. I have the ability to save her, take the pain away and give and provide a life she is more deserving of.


I kiss her cheek where she lays caressing her cheek. I have been selfish I spend most of the time in this intimidating hospital room. If her brother and dad or Lou come in I say make it quick.

Another thing out of my control is my schedule. I am due to play in Sydney I adamantly told my manger not going to happen, he wasn't happy but priority lays in this bed.


I miss her. She is right here and I miss her more than ever. My hand doesn't leave hers. She is beautiful, kind and pure, laboured breathing, oxygen mask concealing her beautiful shaped nose, cracked nude lips. Even in this state she is beautiful.


The sun rays through offering no comfort at all. I talk to her, sing to her. I know she can hear me.


A knock on the door angers me. "Harry mate." He dad comes in. I shake my head I know whats coming. I shake my head repeatedly "no, no, no" I whisper through my forthcoming tears.


"If we don't do this we will lose her."

My heart breaks on her behalf. I couldn't save her. She is going to wake up and hate me. Back on a dialysis machine she doesn't want this but it's going to help her.

Three nurses come in to take her to another room. Then suddenly I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket , i fumble a little, almost dropping it. My palms sweaty I pant.






"When can you start?"








I run after them and they halt immediately.



"WAIT!"
