Black Out

I CAN FEEL THE WARMTH ESCAPE ME AS BLOOD SEEPS FROM THE DEATH BLOW.
I KNEW THIS WAS COMING,
I FELT THE CHILL OF ETERNAL NIGHT SLEEPING NEXT TO ME AS I RESTED.
YET NOTHING,
NO MATTER HOW AWARE,
OR READY AS I COULD BE,
WOULD SOFTEN THE RAZOR SHARP AND SEARING WOUND THAT IMPALED MY VITAL HEART.

THE END OF SOMETHING MAGNIFICENT HAS BEEN BROUGHT FORWARD.
THE DEAFENING THUNDER CLOUDS MAKE HASTE UPON THE HORIZON.
AS BLISTERED,
BRUISED,
AND BROKEN MY BODY LAY UPON BLOODY GROUND I AM AWESTRUCK BY THEIR GRANDEUR.
FOR A MOMENT I FORGET ALL PAIN BOTH PAST AND PRESENT AS THE SKY GATHERS ITS FURY.

IN THESE LAST MOMENTS OF SUCH FRAGILE LIFE,
FLOW THE MEMORIES WE SHARED BEFORE NOW,
THOSE MEMORIES I MAY OR MAY NOT TAKE WITH ME AS I PASS ON TO NEW LIFE;
ANOTHER CONSCIOUSNESS.
THE LAST REMAINING BLOOD SEEPS FORTH,
THE FINAL BREATH IS TAKEN DEEP,
AND NOW IS DONE WHAT YOU SET OUT TO DO.
THE SKY CRACKS AND DOWNPOURS TO THE EARTH,
WASHING AWAY OUR MOMENTS HERE,
MAKING WAY FOR MY REBIRTH.
