Comatose

I struggle in this hold I have on myself

The white light behind my closed eyes reflecting my broken body

Beep Beep Beep

The lullaby of life comforts me

Lulls me into another world of darkness

Darkness that i welcome with unmoving arms

Why can't i wake up?

 

My hands refuse to move

My eyes refuse to open

Weeping from the outside world tears holes into my already bleeding hert

'Wake up!' They say

Can't they see I'm trying?

 

Pain engulfs my being

I'm spiraling into oblivion

My soul is quivering with the force of life

There's nothing left but a shell

Whispered words meet my unatentive ears

They're pulling what?

 

Ragged breaths escape my scarred chapped lips

A sudden force knocks my organs out of whack

My hands are twitching, my body is shutting down

Wails outside of my newfound home push me to the limit

 

There's pain

Mind numbing, relentless, bite-your-tounge pain

Shaking in expectation

My blood runs cold

Beeeeep Beeeep

The lullaby that once soothes my tired soul takes a turn for the worst

 

A chorus of demons invades my mind

Reaching for my hand

The pain won't stop

Why won't it stop?

And then

Beeeeeeeeeeeeep

There's nothing

 

Not a thing

I'm locked in the hollows of my mind

Reaching blindly for the hand of my savior

The one I've held my whole life

Now leaves me alone and scared

 

A scream rises in my throat

Clawing, thrashing, making an attempt to be free

But i won't let it win

I sit here now, waiting for a world i know doesn't exist

My savior has abandoned me

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author's Note

if you didn't get this poem, the dude was in a coma and the doctors pulled the plug. He was waiting for Jesus to take him to heaven, but he didn't come...its sad...Now don't get me wrong, I'm a hardcore christian, but this is what i think would happen if he wasn't there
