Critical Overdose

I felt the pain as the needle went in.

It quickly faded as my journey began.

No one could sense the loss of my senses.

Walking the clouds with feet on the ground.

Time slowed down like babies crawl.

My eyelids carried the full weight of life.

Coursing ever down into the abyss.

The door closed with my final breath.

I am no more!
