Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was next to the room's only window. The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back. The men talked for hours on end. They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation. And every afternoon when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window. The man in the other bed began to live for those one-hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside. The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color of the rainbow. Grand old trees graced the landscape, and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance. As the man by the window described all this in exquisite detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene. One warm afternoon the man by the window described a parade passing by. Although the other man couldn't hear the band - he could see it in his mind's eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words. Days and weeks passed. One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep. She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away. As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, she left him alone. Slowly, painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the world outside. Finally, he would have the joy of seeing it for himself. He strained to slowly turn to look out the window beside the bed. It faced a blank wall. The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things outside this window. The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the wall. She said, "Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you."

It was supposed to be a poem named 'I Give Up' I am so so sorry I need to read this sh1t before I post no wonder it was so Lon but you don't have to forgive me at all but know that I'm sorry
I give up
Go ahead, go ahead, take what you will
Do as you wish, create then your thrill
I have no power to fight against you
But why would I anyway, with all that you do?
I feel so appreciated, so I do not mind
Use whatever you have or whatever you find
Im powerless to your various advances
And I am so in awe of all the romances
So, yes, I give in, take me and use
Do with me then, whatever you so choose
Im only so happy that you had chosen me
Whatever you wish, Ill do it for free (LOL) -
sht bro you know I'm not mad right
-
Well not really you do scare me so its hard to tell if your mad or not...
-
I scare you?
-
Yas you do
-
How? I thought I was being perfectly nice to you.
-
I understand why. It's because of my regular cussing right?
-
Cursing isn't scary.
-
No,you are really nice. That's not what I meant though.....
-
But then, I really don't understand. I'm not asking to put you on the spot, but I really need to know how I'm scary. Because this has been a theme and I can't figure it out for the life of me.
