Angst bc I'm rly sad

Thump thump

Thump thump

His chest rose so slightly

Not a lot but a little

Thump thump

Thump thump

His heartbeat was so small

So small but still there

Thump thump

Thump thump

His body was collapsing

Not much but still doing so

Thump thump

Thump thump

His heart beat slow

Slowly but surely

His heartbeat still there

Thump thump

Thump thump

Slower and slower

His heartbeat was going

But no one had the heart to say

They were too afraid to speak

And watched as his heart beat

Thump thump

Nobody's voice was heard

Not an echo or a creek

Just the sound of the monitor

Of his heart beat going weak

Thump thump

Tears and snot run down

Their faces and sniffles too

It was so devastating

And heart wrenching

But still no words were needed

Their silence showed everything

Thump thump

He didn't move a muscle

Still laying there limp

A hand on top of his own

Was his precious boyfriend

He never wanted this

He hated himself for this

He let him get hurt and blamed

Himself for everything

He wasn't to blame but couldn't see that

Thump

One final heartbeat

Suddenly everything stopped

Crying and whining were finally heard

Shouting and screaming 'no'

But it was all done with now

No going back

Eventually people parted

From their loved one

Leaving only one

"I'm so sorry Gavin"

He whispered as he walked out of the hospital room
