**************************

black

spots

like the

freckles

on a pale face

like the

stars

if the night was

inverted

and white

became

true black

you can almost

feel

your lungs

squeezing

every last bit of

air

to your brain

"stay alive

stay alive

stay alive"

but you refuse

you will

not fight

this battle any longer

than you have to

the rope

is coarse

threads

fraying

from your

weight

you do not

claw

at it the way

others have done

you simply

let your weight

drop

into your toes

let your mind

wander

for the very last time

you push the

air

out of your lungs

though it

fights

your breath

fights

against you

against this

terrible

terrible

thing that you want to do

but you are doing it

no matter what

you hope she

doesn't find you

because it would

haunt her

the image of you

dead

before her

footsteps

on the stairs

nearing

then receding

like the tide

gently washing up against

the shore

and then away

you let the

spots

cloud your vision

and you breathe

your last

and you

let yourself

hang
