EMBRACING DEATH
A tear falling to the floor
A soul undone, evermore
The floor turning slick as more tears fall
A crying soul screaming in the hall
A shudder a flutter of soul and heart
A love stopped short, without a start
Falling crawling fleeing seeing
Life living love leaving
Heat is obvious
Want is there
ahhhh to feel
My hands in her hair
She needs me wants me
Desires me haunts me
Will not go to what I can see
Will not go, because of me
I can not stand, I can not sit
I seem to float in a world of shit
I lay me down, and can't get up
Paralyzed by a wait that won't let up
Death comes with cold fingers
Grips me tight in an embrace of darkness
An embrace like none I have had
Like none have ever offered to give me
Slowly do my arms encircle death
Slowly do my arms wrap the only person to have loved me
Slowly do my eyes close in the ecstasy of oblivion
Slowly do I know true love
Falling crawling fleeing seeing
Life living love leaving
