Call 999...
It's an emergency...
The ambulance pinged...
Pills on the floor.
The world was hazy,
Hushed and drifting...
Feel her pulse...
Oh my God, that stuff!
My feet were heavy.
My speech was terse.
Come on, bring the stretcher,
We're losing her!
Bottles on the sink,
My momma uttered a prayer.
The ambulance pinged.
Voices were piped...
It's an emergency!
Take her to the E.R!
We're losing her...
What's her situation?
A case of opium-fretnol overdose!
One- plus-one was never two...
Feel her pulse again!
No,no,no!
Don't die on us.
Perform a CPR...
Could be Cardiac arrest!
Arteries throbbing,
Pain exploding,
Death impending,
Serenity tolling...
Finally.
Take her to the O.R!
No,shock her!
Blood levels are dropping.
Six feet under...
Tear drops on the mound of sand...
Defibrillator,please!
Charge...
Shock her...
Hearts throbbing again.
Revival.
No more death.
No more serenity.
Depression looming.
Loneliness looking through the window.
A prayer never answered.
Life granted, not the wish.
Death is harder than it looks.
