How did it get to this? I try and listen through the sound of the siren, yet your voice echos and the pounding in my head won't stop.

I don't gasp for air, but clutch my chest as if something was stuck, hindering my breath. My eyelids get heavy, and soon I can't see a thing.

I listen to what I can make out from your echos and put together "Stay" and "Sorry". You continue to repeat this, but it seems you don't realize that I can't understand you anymore.

I can't understand me anymore.

What did I do wrong? Why has it come to this? How did I get hurt? Where am I going now?

My thoughts spin as I am trapped in endless darkness. There is nothing in front of me as I try to reach out, but I can't feel my arms, nor my legs. I can't see, and I can't feel you.

It pains me to know that you aren't there anymore. You were always there, but then after a while, you started getting distant.

My head, which was pounding a moment ago, now feels cold and wet. I can feel as the temperature of my body starts goes down, but too far down.

I can't feel anything but the cold and wet feeling around me. I tried to concentrate on the sound of my beating heart, which sent shivers down my spine.

In the darkness, I try and imagine what we used to do together to ease my mind. I see myself with a happy smile, but your face is blurry and I cannot see your expression.

My face distorts, cracks form in the image I had imagined of myself, and again I see nothing.

I felt dead inside, and I felt like you didn't care.
