Another Poem

As I lie here on my deathbed
I can only think of you
I'm amazed at how minds work
I can't believe what they do
My mind is going, but only just
How much longer have I got
Before I just slip away
A little time or a whole lot
I'm slipping so very slowly
How I hate this pain
Why can't I just quit this
Pretend it's all a game
Alas, I just can't quit
I must fight all the way
This is a game I must win
If I give in I have to pay
And I'll pay with my life
So I continue to fight
I lie here and think of you
Thinking with all my might
My heart beats when I hear you
Why won't you lie here with me
So my heart won't ever stop
It just stopped and now I'm free
