I cursed the sterile white room where Ann died

As I stood in the cold, sterile white room where Ann took her last breath, I couldn’t help but feel anger and bitterness towards the stark surroundings that seemed so devoid of warmth and humanity.

The fluorescent lights buzzed overhead, casting a harsh glare on Ann’s pale face as she lay motionless on the hospital bed. The beeping of the machines, monitoring her failing vital signs, was a constant reminder of the fragility of life.

I cursed the sterile white walls that seemed to close in around me, suffocating me with their clinical indifference. I cursed the plastic chairs that offered no comfort as I sat vigil by Ann’s side, holding her cold hand in mine.

But as I looked into Ann’s peaceful face, I realized that it wasn’t the room that was to blame for her passing. It was simply a vessel, a backdrop to the inevitable journey we all must take at some point in our lives.

And so, I let go of my anger and bitterness, replacing it with gratitude for the time I had spent with Ann, for the love we had shared, and for the memories that would forever live on in my heart.

As I walked out of the sterile white room, I knew that Ann was at peace, free from the confines of walls and machines. And I vowed to carry her spirit with me, always grateful for the time we had together.
