6 feet under (temporary title)

Choking for air

choking, gasping

why is it so hot? why is it so dark?

the air is heavy with my own breath

i try to steady myself

but i can't help but gasp

dizziness is setting in

Help! Help! Somebody!

i feel around

i am surrounded on all sides by finished wood

beneath me is soft velvet

lying next to me i find what feels like a flower,

no it is a rose

i can tell by the thorns

so this is your way of saying goodbye

you coward, i think to myself

then finally i am lost in permanent sleep.
