Fast
And there it goes
never thought it to you but it goes
the breath out of your body
the warmth it turns to cold
and there it goes.
my hand holding yours as you float
in and out of consciousness
the ebb and flow
your eyes are teary and in repose
and there it goes.
your laughter has gone silent.
nothing they can do is what im told
how do i let you go?
in a second you are no more
and there it goes.
the medics take your vitals
there's no panic in them and
it shows.
the put a sheet on you like the close the
curtains to a show....
and there she goes.
