ULTIMATUM!

Sun never stopped burning
stars never stopped shining
people never stopped speaking
and I never stopped dying.

Every tick of the second-hand
showed another moment passing
and every second that passed
brought with it another second
waiting to pass...

As for me,
death was life
and life was death.

Sun that shone bright in the sky
brought with it the ray of hope
not that it will be light
but that soon it will be dark.

For darkness reflected my mood
the inside of me dead as a corpse
and outside of me trying not to look dead.

The ultimatum for the pain to go
was a never-coming phenomena
and the numbness inside me
was a never-ending truth
that I could not deny.

I wished I could die
but it seems
death is oblivious to my pain.

Death seems like a rotten egg
when it doesn't show up
when it is in most demand.
and life feels like an obligation
rather than a gift
when who we lived for
is Gone!
