NaPoWriMo 2018-02 -- Not Running?

Stopped Dead

 

Stopped dead in its tracks, is it still ticking

Second hand on my clock it goes no more

Let us wait a minute and we will see

 

All is quiet now is my heart still beating
Pulse in my neck I can feel it no more

Let us wait a minute and we will see

 

Seems I don't breathe is my chest still heaving

Very quiet no snoring or wheezing

Let us wait a minute and we will see

 

Am I dead am I alive, I can't tell

Fingers and toes they won't move anymore

Let us wait a minute and we will see

 

My eyes are open yet I cannot see

They won't close though I try nor can I blink

Let us wait a minute and we will see

 

My bed is empty there's no one in it

Where am I now I want to know. Do you

Time is up the clock has stopped minute's gone

 

Digits don't work eyes can't see heart is bad

Body has gone to pot and missing too

This is a mess how can I recover

 

Where am I now, what's going on, that noise
Got to get up morning's come, my alarm
It's time to see, am I dead or alive
