Freed
My final breath
Has been drawn
As it all fades
I let go
Pounding chest
Spinning heat
My eyes close
Its almost time
Let a smile
Come to me, I hear
The words of the past
Silence at last.
The ache departs
Tablets are all it took
To make the hush
Fall over me
I relax: “its time”
Open my eyes one last time
And let it all in…
Breath slows to a stop…
Pain goes…
Its done!
Silence!!!
