Like A Bomb

Ticking like a mini bomb

So the seconds of life tick away in my head

Knowing full well it\'ll reach zero soon

I sit and wait. 

 

The chair squeaks as I inhale

The very breath I take hurts

The skin that I live in doesn\'t feel like home

Not that it ever did

 

You can\'t see past the blood and tears

The ticking in my head has stopped

The chair sits quietly

It doesn\'t hurt anymore 

And for once, I feel at home

I feel at home before the grim reaper.
