Last Moments

By RequiemExMortis

(Note: Try not to judge this one too harshly... I wrote it more than ten years ago, when I was still a very young high school dropout.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Deadly poison seeps in skin,
Toxic venom deep within;
Reaking havoc on your senses,
Poison spreading, blood condenses.

Body and soul, so dizzy, uneven,
Stomach twisting while dry-heaving;
Killer pain inside your head,
Designated to your bed.

Ice-cold sweat and boiling fever,
Rooms keeps spining 'round forever;
Skin ash-grey, eyes bright blue,
Devil's number all through you.

Coughing, hacking... mind distracts,
Read Last Rights, no turning back;
Thoughts cloud up, pain force-fed,
Mind goes black, now you're dead.
