I can feel it now

Unnoticed day by day

But so apparent

Year after year

I see it in those around me

Now I see it in the mirror

It will happen to you too

I feel my bones turning to dust

My melting skin

Sphincters unravel

Spilling guts

A walking corpse

Parasites take advantage of my weaknesses

Wheezing, gasping towards the nectar of oxygen

Blood slips out of whichever orifice it can

I took this for granted

I ruined it myself

It went by so fast

No turning back now
