~Vanishing Point~

automatic reaction, seems like it's broke
dazed in mind baffle, thoughts won't come alive
resend the thought, but rejects it somehow
a flurry of pills, while this is my now.

horrific the thoughts
while scare turns to fear
the other sides dark
while this side was clear.

talk in the room
like it's deep in a can
a beep goes full blurt
while I flat-line again.

no fog on the mirror
body's, in rest
as I look down in hover
seems they're doing their best.

Vanishing point beckons me so
into the light
it's now.....my time to go~

About this poem:
Death, what we all seem to fear, yet so uncomfortable to talk about it as well. Be it natural cause, suicide or suddenly taken.
