On the hour, every hour
Like clockwork you would awake
Quiet cries for help stab my eardrums
A soft blanket of matting cradles my body as I lay on the floor
Violins soothe the air with veils of the sea
Visions of waves crashing against caves and teasing the sand fill my head
I catch a glimpse of you…you’re beautiful face with rosy cheeks will never be forgotten
The clock strikes twelve
Shrieks of pain cause panic and confusion
I clutch your hand and comfort you as much as I can
Your dark umber eyes pierce through my body as you try to speak
The room becomes silent as you look at me for the last time
One final deep breath escapes your body as you sink into the bed
Your hand slithers out of mine cuddling your body
Muffled screams rise around me
One…two…three…the heart never gives up
Magnets of energy pull me backwards as I grasp onto you
A sheet of ice covers your body while you seek peacefulness
Shadows of inhuman flesh lift you
Dressed in black with no where to go
Creaking wheels indent the carpet
My eyes roll upward only to find my life tucked into a coal bag
Anxiety congests my lungs while salty tears stream down my face
Life comes to a halt but never regains consciousness
My condolences.
