Staring Death in the Eyes

Folder: 
OTHER

The waves of time

Expand and contract

Like frozen water

And you alone are immune

To it's crushing tsunami



You touched me once

With your frigid fingertips



And I was afraid once;

No more.



Your dark eyes held mine once

and I saw Hell



At one time I believed in this world;

No more.



You used to haunt me once,

And now I haunt you.



Our bodies danced for death,

Longed for it, begged

And now,

No more.



The flow of time

Weaves and bobs

Like silk ribbons on metal

And we alone

are immune

To the seductive touch



And now;

Alone.



At one time I believed in this world;

No more.
