As I tunnel out of here
in a cloak of constant fear
it's to the light that I'm getting near
but will you remember me my dear?

--

Somewhere else I lay free
to rest in peace and let it be
as DNA will let you see
these bones do not belong to me.

--

I close my eyes to make it go away
at least until another day
but procrastination isn't considered cool
when you've impaled yourself with a power tool!

--

Of these words I choose I cannot speak
for my spirit is gone and the mind is weak.
I've decided to quit but they'll never know.
Oh God of mercy please let me go.

--

Lofty ambitions written in this washroom stall
reflecting society's decline and fall.
The philosopher who sits here will make it clear
he's simply stating "I was here!"

Capturing the moment

The Poem was excellent. It captures the moment of one's self feelings before death.
