Close At Hand - Tragedy

Choices are made, their bidding is done

Capitulation willing, tranquility consumed

And so here we are to confront yet again

Our willingness to accept

The fate they are prepared to give

Pills administered as the i.v.

drips

The shots are given but the pain subsists

Black hole approaching, cold darkness takes hold

Take one last breath as the final curtains close

Imminent impendent doom

Close at hand
