Life As Me

By rondant

I shake and tremble from the cold
But I try my hardest to be bold
The roof to my house begins to leak
I haven't had food in almost a week
I whimper and cry from blinding fear
I can feel my time drawing near
The rope around my neck is choking me
My eyes go blank and I can not see
I now draw my final breath
For I just died a horrible death.

    Yeah, you should really get pain for this. It was that good.
