Death

by eternal rest   Aug 1, 2005


How do you put
Death into words?

Life flooding through blood
Strewn on the ground.
Murky eyes.
As life drains.

Failing to say
Those last precious words
While death overcomes.

As I know there is nothing
To save you.
All I can do is comfort you
And hope your path to heaven is an easy one.

I always thought
Death was more.
More than just last moments of blood filled
Words.
More than the pain I know you never overcame.

But not this time.
Death is tears
And hate.
And constant unforgiving love.
