deathly.




all sounds went away-
a dull silence encompassing her being as time slowed right before her eyes.
the sound of her heart faded and her breathing stopped;
all while she remained eerily concious.

her throat constricted and the bubble of life shrank until it was plastered onto her own skin.
desperately she drew forth breath, her lungs expanding,
her heart pounding,
and the world painted itself back in color again.

But she would never forget that Death sat on her head.
