Was there much pain?
In the end, you couldn't tell.
As your heart beat slowed,
Taking your warmth with it,
On it's way out.

Your eyes grew heavy,
Half-lidded, they sought me,
I was there, beside you,
Holding your cold hand,
But you couldn't see me.

As your last neurons fire,
Your life is spent at last.
In that final moment,
Was there much pain?
Written for :iconlive-love-write:'s latest prompt. It was kind of depressing, so, you know, I wrote about death. Go figure. XD
