D for Diligence
I opened the door and was welcomed by blood,
it's stench more overwhelming than perfume.
My nose stung, but I dared not to cover it.
For fear I would lose this fragrance.
My cold bare feet collided with a liquid
that made tears come to my eyes.
like clouds on a rainy day,
that would never go away.
Unable to see, I felt for your body
hoping it was still there.
My knees fell for you drenching them,
and like a knight, I knelt for my queen.
I ran my hand along your throat,
then touched my lips.
The sweet taste that poured from your wound,
embraced my taste buds.
Now I remember why I was here,
and how I ran my blade across your neck.
To end a life is a new beginning, for those willing.
D for diligence, my work is finished.
