Cracking

can you hear it?

the quietness of the air is stale

choking you, but you don't mind

the constricting feeling will go away soon

only you know that

you listen closely

as the metallic sound gets closer

until when it's close enough

you jump in front

the cracking of bones

the rupturing of lungs

you welcome the feeling

barely able to hear the screech

as your blood paves the concrete

the darkness starts to take hold

and that strangling feeling

its finally gone 

Author's Note

this is what I do, I'm too much of a coward to act it out.
