Holding life gently will never
be sufficient.
Suffocating from oxygen deprived
lungs.
Blackness penetrating, pulling the
ankles.
Wrapping around, obscuring the
unconscious body.
The image of a clock slowly winding
down to the last moment.
An evil voice demanding death.
Brought to the last sliver of life.
Struggling to pull back a will losing
hope.
Stretch out a hand.
Grasp the gift of life.
Is this a message of dying?
Is just the act of living of prime
importance?
Grasp life.
Grasping will never suffocate.
Grasp life.
Holding life gently will never
be sufficient.
