Storm warning
lighting strikes tombstones
charging undead smiles and scowls
I witnessed her rise
An inky black mirage that I couldn’t look away from
Fully blackened eyes held my attention captive
as I watched her lower her head
Tears began staining her once beating heart
I wondered what saddened her but
She remained silent, her answer only a stare
And in one swift motion
She slashed her wrists
Telling me to
Drink deeply my dear
Life seeps into nothingness
There’s no romance in death
Only darkness is eternal
Mesmirized I obliged and she finally died feeding my need
’cause love was deaf to my callings during this lifetime
