Demise

Tainted
Tainted dirty filthy
Doing the filthy deed
A work of her own
Smiling filthy grin
Blood stained teeth
dripping black liquid
A fresh wounded
Smoldering in the shadows
All light escaping his eyes
Bare heavy bones
Sinking into the hard wood
She sweeps gracefully by
Black silk gown brushing against his cheek
Down she gazes
Pitiful
no more but gone away
Just as the dust settles
you will be dust soon my love
Never again
A calm warm light pours into the space
Dirty grimy window seal
old tarnished glass
She presses her lips to the window
Exhaling now
Filling the glass with fog
Cold so cold
Her lungs are that of ice
Hot light burning her eyes
Bloodshot deep crimson
Dry and sore
Pale skin reaching up to the glass
A long sharp nail scratching the surface
A piercing sound echoing through the room
Bones
Bones
Silent dull bones
Crashing down
The weight the guilt
Her hands slide down the filthy smoked up glass
Down she comes
A feather flowing down hitting the ground
Dirty sharp nails
Clawing now
Mangled matted hair
Weeping from within
No tears
Too tired
So tired
There is nothing left
There never was
And so she gets on hands and knees
Crawling across the bare wooden floor
A rusty nail catching the fabric of her dress
Tearing
she tugs on it
On she crawls
To deaths doorstep
There he lies
Eyes wide open
Black sunken in orbs
Face still
Sullen
This is his fate
She opens his mouth sharp nails
digging deep within
Speak
Speak to me
Nothing
She lifts his head up to hers
pressing her forehead onto
the cold flesh
I feel what I have done
Is what I must do
Before I do what is right
My dear
Love...
And then she She stops speaking
Light fading from eyes
Still
falling
A crash
Thud
Bones
heavy bones against the hardwood floor
It is done. No more.
