Many words met death on my tongue,
On the cusp of their birth,
On the ****** of their existence,
Snuffed before ignition.
My lips can’t budge,
Inside- I am screaming,
Inside- I howl my voice hoarse,
None of this needs surface,
None of this needs thought.
Still,
Death marching on-and-on,
There are no medals to win,
Gasp a breath, salute my death,
Et la fin.
