Watching the Sunrise

by Colby   Apr 25, 2007


Watching the sunrise
out the window
the door shutters
as the wind blows

Watching the sunrise
the door slams open
as death stairs you in the eye
taking away your last token

Watching the sunrise
walking to your death
you close your eyes
knowing this is your last breath,

Watching the sunrise
the air is harder to find
putting your head up looking
at the sunrise one last time.

    Great poem, short but full of meaning. I really like the deepness that seems to be behind the poem....GP

    Second stnza, third line. "Stairs" should be "stares" other than that, great poem. i enjoyed the repetitive style.
