Death

by Angel_Slayer   Jul 1, 2006


Death is but a heart beat away,
But your love so far kept it at bay,
Now your gone, he's come for me,
Out of the darkness so I can just see,

The pearl white bones that illuminate the dark,
His scythe against concrete creates a spark.
My fear I feel is not to die,
But to leave her to a lonely life.

As his fleshless hand reaches out,
I start to scream,yell and shout,
I call her name but she doesn't hear,
I no the end is so very near.

As his bony fingers make contact... I lose my breath,
And suffocate into a peaceful death,
The last memory I recall,
Was friends, family and Tiff most of all,

Her face so beautiful in the light,
It slowly fades into the darkness of night,
I try to hold that serene thought,
But I missed it and it was never caught,

Its gone for good now its left my head,
As I lay on ground lifeless and dead,
You see my body lying there,
And now realize just how much you care,

As tears start to stream down your face,
You realize I'm not coming back to this place,
There was no better place than there with you,
Now I'm dead and there's nothing anyone can do.

You bring my head into a tight embrace,
And place your lips upon my face,
But I'm gone forever, my life is lost,
All because I got jealous.

Its to late now, so I'll say goodbye,
The last word before I die.

    Some spelling errors and maybe a line or two that didn't quite go with the rest. But well it had been quite good. It really had this hook that made it worth reading. Some nice words and some cool lines that just stood out. Really looks like you're going to produce some really cool pieces. Imagery was awesome because it had this vivid intensity that was really used to the best advantage. Great job.
