• i wandered the hall
    and the last thing i saw as i looked around
    was the wall and the floor,
    and then i hit the ground

    i stare at the ceiling
    lying still and unfeeling

    what was it that happened
    it was but a gun
    that someone had shot
    and i knew i was done.

    i lay still and feeling so ill.
    someone had intended to kill.

    as i lay on the floor
    i draw my last breath.
    i lay down my head
    and surrender to death.
