Cardiac Arrest

 

The hand of frost spreads stark and numb

To chill my heart, beating like a tired drum

To this stillness I will succumb

Feel the hand of fate caress and hum

The frost spreads chilling my bone

Like scattered petals the wind has blown

From the azure skies I was thrown

Earthward to embrace my throne

My journey ended against my will

The stars dimmed when I fell ill

My heart exploded and the world went still

Did not know a heartbeat could kill
