The Force Within

Death has it's grip tightly wrapped around me
It surrounds me
I feel it suffocate me
making it harder to breathe
by each aching minute

Things are spinning now
my sense of reality is fading
and I am wading through it all
I am struggling to stay awake
I can feel my eyes popping out of my skull
my sense of life is dull

What is this brutal force taking over me?
controlling me
making me live in a constant state of fear
this cant be real
but then again,
I know of no other emotion
All's I know is this force is too powerful to overcome
to try and run
much like a gun
its loaded and you're done

But eventually you'll become exhausted
life is what it is
and you've lost it

Surrendering to the force
it'll eventually gain total control over you
say goodbye to what you used to know
and hello to your greatest nightmares
