broken nails

blood

flesh

humanity

what's left of it

track marks in the dirt

fingers released grip

that last sigh

face froze

in a panicked gaze

that icy look

into the unknown

questions abound

is there a god

is this all there is

was I a good person

will I ever...

bewildered

stunned by fear, the obvious

inevitable

body fell

as rain

peaceful

no struggle

just a calm, sweet surrender
