This anticipation is like fire

Which is fed more wood and coal

Breath so deep like the sea

Seeming to be my only friend

 

As people surround and attach a wire

I can physically feel my blood boil

Sparks of fear give me reason to flee

Yet they only mean to help tend

 

My body shakes with unpleasant desire

An icy serpent scales my arm into a coil.

A bright light beams directly down on me

Dying bringing darkness to ascend

 

My friend returns like a rectifier

Thankfully my heart begins to recoil.

Pondering how there was no guarantee.

Preliminary relief is truly a godsend
