Finally, I'm Free..

Standing alone.
Contemplating life,
Thump. Thump.
Tell me how to stop this,
Thump. Thump.

Time is slowing,
Tick. Tick.
The clock counts down endlessly,
Tick. Tick.

This pressure is becoming unbearable,
Drip. Drip.
Perspiration increases with each passing second,
Drip. Drip.

Make this stop!
Beep. Beep.
I can't stand this anymore,
Beep. Beep.

Just stop the pain or I'll do it myself,
Thump. Thump.
Finger on the trigger,
Thump. Thump.
My heart beats faster,
Thump. Thump.
My grip tightens,
Thump. Thump.
This is all happening so fast,
Thump. Thump...BANG!

Everything
is slowing down.

Everything
is calm.

Everything
is still.

... Be very quiet.

Can you hear it?

... There it is again.

Finally, I'm free...
