Liquid Velvet Steals A Life

Night creeps upon me,
Like liquid velvet,
Lulling my sub-conscience,
Lulling me deeper into sleep.
Darkness employs me blindly,
My brain a lively riot,
A state of uncanny brilliance,
Pulling me so deep.

Uncertain I am,
Where are they right now?
As my heart begins to slam,
To find them I fully vow.
Save me from my misery,
Liveliness so steadily,
Creeping on my insides,
Showing on my outsides.

Writhing as my heart stops,
A steady beat that ceases,
Sent into anaphylactic shock,
My eyes rolling back.
Blood spreads on the black top
Of my sub-conscience, bleeding
Into the deep airlock
Of oxygen departing, I'm under attack.

Uncertain I am,
Where are they right now?
As my heart begins to slam,
To find my way back I fully vow.
Save me from my misery,
Liveliness so steadily,
Creeping on my insides,
Showing on my outsides.

Losing feeling from my fingers,
Blood creeping away from my toes.
Rushing to my heart.
Trying to save it.
Too much too fast, a thousand blisters.
The faint beating of my heart echoes.
Pulling each artery and vein apart,
Sending each cell into a fit.

Uncertain I am,
Where are they right now?
As my heart begins to slam,
To find the light I fully vow.
Save me from my misery,
Liveliness so steadily,
Creeping on my insides,
Showing on my outsides.
Too far gone,
Something is wrong.
They've made a mistake,
One they can't remake,
Taken my life away,
A procedure gone astray.
A life that used to be strong,
Taken by a surgery gone wrong.

*The idea was that this was from the point of view of a patient who's surgery went wrong. This is what she went through as she died.
