She Will Soon Be Dead

All while fighting and trying to breathe
Another part of the mind just wanted to leave
But her body kept pushing and trying to stay
While all her thoughts began to drift away
Her mind kept racing and would not be quiet
All day, every day, there was a riot
Until one day when the yelling stopped
And all this happened when her body dropped
She could feel the rope begin to tighten
And all her worries had begun to slighten
Because she would soon be dead
And all her painful thoughts would leave her head
