I felt the first stab of pain in my back- like a knife stabbing me over and over and over then the pain spread to my chest, my arms I was sweating I was soaking wet a moment of panic because I just knew I had moments I picked up my cell phone and dialed 911 the person on the other end wanted my name and address but I could not speak I whispered "ambulance" I could hear her saying stay on the line but I could not I went to my sofa and was sure this is where I would die. Not sure how long, moments, minutes, I was gasping for air then the door opened the paramedics had arrived- but I could not talk, their voices were mumbled and far away "Miss, you are having a heart heart" . . . then there was a rush, siren blaring, fast and faster we flew I could hear voices saying I would be alright my clothes were being cut off me and then it stopped- I was wandering in a dark void of nothingness . . . ________________________ June 25, 2017 Free Verse/And Then It Stopped Copyright Protected, ID 913456
