Are you still there

I lie back hard, cold bed beneath me The ceiling fan stares back at me, he can't look
Are You still there? I feel You Your heart in time with mine. I'll try to find a way to say goodbye
A thousand thoughts at a thousand miles an hour, I could still stop this, I could still still scream until they let us go.
But I don't, I can't, can't move, can't think, can't breathe anymore. I don't think I want to.
Cold latex fingers grip my sides. I stretch my neck to see my knees either side. A blue cloth is all my modesty.
You're still there we haven't yet let go. And I could still say no, say stop, say goodbye and walk away. But no.
I can feel their sharp intruments in me, My fear numbs the pain, but not the pain in my head as it reels a million choices I could take. Is this the one?
Your beat's still there, so faint, so frail. Soon, I know, to stop. You're still mine though, You still belong to me. I cradle you now though I never can.
It's all hapening now and I know it's too late, to scream, to cry 'till they let go and let us be one.
I asked for this, I wanted this, did I? Descisions aren't so simple anymore.
Are you still there? i can't feel your beat, only mine. i listen, i listen so hard. one where Two should be.
They're speaking again but i can't listen, i don't even try. They lift me up and i dress, i cover up my body.
A little water to wash me of this deed.
Are you still there? Are you? i feel where you should be but it's empty and i'm alone. Left to hear only one beat beat beat beat i know it'll never forgive beat beat beat...

Sometimes when it's hard to fathom what the writer is trying to say adds an extra dimension to a poem.
Looking for meaning, and being given points to ponder gives the reader something in depth to think about.
Which in my eyes is a good thing.
An enjoyable read well done.
