Her voice but a whisper as Death clutches her tiny frame Her eyes ***** windows unbreachable As her sins She takes to the grave She tries in vain to convey her pain As her words Rattle rasp and hiss Incomprehensible Empirical The language of the dead For surely she knows Her death Given her pain Will be a welcoming comfort She closes her eyes in anticipation Her breathing short and laboured Her mind and body have betrayed her Fragile and frail Wrought of disease this husk of a shell That was once so beautiful Unrecognizable Soiled in excreta Silently crying as She lay dying Ravaged by unwanted Memories of a time Long Gone Living is easy she Mused It is death that is hard And with that final thought She gasped And she was gone

As She lay Dying
Her voice but a whisper as Death clutches her tiny frame Her eyes ***** windows unbreachable As her sins She takes to the grave She tries in vain to convey her pain As her words Rattle rasp and hiss Incomprehensible Empirical The language of the dead For surely she knows Her death Given her pain Will be a welcoming comfort She closes her eyes in anticipation Her breathing short and laboured Her mind and body have betrayed her Fragile and frail Wrought of disease this husk of a shell That was once so beautiful Unrecognizable Soiled in excreta Silently crying as She lay dying Ravaged by unwanted Memories of a time Long Gone Living is easy she Mused It is death that is hard And with that final thought She gasped And she was gone
