I grasp at the last straws. My strength fails me. The anger and frustration in my head has simply turned to bewilderment. Was this how it was to be? My end. With my body there still intact. And the lights going off in the recess of my mind slowly. While I struggle to stay awake.
They won after all. They succeeded. In destroying and sullying the sanctity of my mind. Of my values. And as the lights dim and bewilderment turns into astonishment and simply to resignation.
It was complete destruction. Death would have been better. Death would have been but a sweet escape. But alas. It's never to be.
The dying embers twinkly briefly. Before it all goes dark. What did die? - I wonder in those last brief moments. What was it that made me 'me'? But whatever it was... was gone now... There was only silence. There were no more questions. And no need for answers.
