with the prickly feeling of tears
and a heavy feeling in my heart,
a thunderstorm raged on and on in my mind,
to match the torrents of rain outside.

she grasps and chokes,
kn breathes of air,
filled with venom,
and pounding rain -

each breath she takes
she feels herself falling
closer and closer to the end,
darkness seeping into her vision,
slowly,
s l o w l y,
s l o w-

until life ceased to exist,
and all that was left
was a clear gasp of air
and a washing of relief.
