Littlest Hero

Two years in a hospital
walls were white and plain
your little eyes got bored
but you smiled through the pain

Your little body got tired
medicine trickled through your vein
dopey and groggy
you smiled through the pain

Puffy little fingers
gripping in strain
you still managed
to smile through the pain

A tube stuck in your tiny nose
a tug when you felt it drain
you turned your precious head
and smiled through your pain

Your stomach grumbled
GVH left its stain
your stomach came up
and there was your smile in pain

You fought each and every day
just to have the chance to grow
yet you still showed your beautiful smile
Tyler, you are our little hero
