A Pinch

A quick
Sharp
Pain in a vein
Barely notice it
Blood is drawn
Rushing from the vein
It feels unnatural
Leaving from your vein
But the pain is unnoticeable
as more leaves
A feeling of faint
The one drawing the blood
gives a kind look with their eyes
Taking more blood
worry sets in
Skin becomes ashen
vision blurs
More blood is drawn
To tight in a grip
Body goes limp
What caused the minor pain leaves the vein
Two slow breaths
Ashen
Cold
Dead
Too much blood was
