Dead

You know that moment in life when your heart stops beating, and you just stop breathing.

and in a tenth of a second, your heart and mind start to feel threatened.

when every breath you take in starts to weaken you, and with ever heart beat your left wondering what your meant to do.

now the only word to describe you is dead, because your body is stiff as lead.

your now in your death bed, being careful t were you tread.

but I must warn you my friend, your next step may lead to your end.
