Coma Goodbye
My ears strain to hear.
My eyes try to adjust. Can't!
I am in a void.
My mind screams. Terror.
I try to move. I can't move.
There is no feeling.
No pain. Nothing.
I sense sadness around me.
Where am I? Someone!?
I have no voice. Odd.
I know my mind is working.
So I'm alive. Right?
The shadows go by.
A fuzzy blur past my eyes.
Surely they will see.
How long has it been?
Hey! I must be breathing! Good.
Odd, how that thought came?
Hello? Are you there?
Anyone? Can you hear me?
Eyes! Look at my eyes!
Time has no meaning.
Just the shadows that go by.
Don't I need to eat?
The shadows gather.
More shadows now than before.
Grief. I sense deep grief.
It's hard to think now.
What was I trying to do?
That sound! What was it!?
Must...hear..what...it...was....
My mind is fading from me.
Sounded like goodbye.
