Death

You drift back into those dark places

Once again plagued by blacked out faces

Your breathing stops

Your heart drops

A tightness in your chest rises

All your friends blank expressions

Pools of blood all different sizes

So many questions

Is this my fault?

I kept my feelings inside a vault

A chilling feeling creeps up my skin

I'll have to contact their next of kin

Death wraps it's cloak around me

I'll never be free

Drowning in a black sea

Sleep is a foreign concept to me

I wish I could disagree

I open my eyes as death finally consumes me

Friends, Family, all of them gone

I look out my window, it's dawn

My eye lids are heavy

My emotional levee

Finally broke

Death as taken my final breath
