I am dead. My legs are broken And my mind has betrayed me. I Cant Move. I hear the screaming. Loud Horrible Torment. I try to make it stop But still I Cant Move. I rip my eyes open, The air is acid. Time is rushing through My disoriented state Wasting, Wasting away like I am. My lead arm strains And my lips groan As I reach Reach To stop the torment. Quiet. The stomach rises and falls. The fingers move, The shoulders roll. My left knee bends as it Battles over the precipice. The right grudgingly follows My dead body spasms I scream, I expand, I unfold, I get out of bed.

I am dead
I am dead. My legs are broken And my mind has betrayed me. I Cant Move. I hear the screaming. Loud Horrible Torment. I try to make it stop But still I Cant Move. I rip my eyes open, The air is acid. Time is rushing through My disoriented state Wasting, Wasting away like I am. My lead arm strains And my lips groan As I reach Reach To stop the torment. Quiet. The stomach rises and falls. The fingers move, The shoulders roll. My left knee bends as it Battles over the precipice. The right grudgingly follows My dead body spasms I scream, I expand, I unfold, I get out of bed.
