“Natural causes”

If anyone asks
I died of natural causes
From the heart in my chest
Being ripped out & broken,
Abandoning me here
Forever to rest.
I died of natural causes
Of a body so beaten
The mental scars echoed,
As I lay in the darkness
Cold & bleeding.
I died of natural causes
From the breaths in my lungs
Weakening in disbelief
Of the horror that rolled
From your tongue.
I died of natural causes
From a body exhausted
The wounds healed
But the mind was left
So terribly haunted.
