Not based on me, just a poem i made up.
I have a feeling deep inside
I don't know what it is
I really wish it wouldn't hide
And stop being so mysterious
It pokes at my heart
But stays in the dark
It cuts off circulation and air flow to my lungs
Then my body starts to tingle, now I'm going numb
I can't really feel what happens next,
But I feel like I need to rest
I sit on the bed
I lay down my head
My eyes are getting heavy, slowly they start to close
I'm sleeping now I suppose
But voices still surround me
Then I hear one say
"Out of my way, let me see!"
I scream out that I'm ok
But I'm the only one who hears
I need to wipe away these tears
I try to lift my arm, but it won't seem to move
It stays still
Against my will
But I have a point to prove
Slowly I'm able to lift my hand, and put it on my chest
They tell me to quit moving and let them do the rest
But I ignore this demand
I am not in their command
What i feel is damp and soggy, but not exactly wet
I look at my hand and it's covered in red
Now I notice this is blood, but whose blood could it be?
I sit and think and I realized the one that's bleeding is me
How could this have happened, and what did I do wrong?
It's only been ten minutes now, but it feels like it's been so long
Now I'm shaking violently
It's getting harder to breath
My blood is in my throat
Now I'm starting to choke
Everything around me slowly fades away
I didn't even get to finish the rest of my today
Now everything around me is already gone
The last thing I have thought is goodbye and so long.
