With frozen lips
Ice-whispers escape.
Plummet down.
Shatter 'cross the ground.
Lifeless body limping
Making concrete gestures.
Dragging breath along
Just to finish today's song.
Monotone humming
Barely audible enough to follow.
Simply a working knowledge of the coming lyrics.
Hollow spirit
Mimics...
Images faded at my touch.
Oh god, I'm dead.
Reaching towards the grass -
Grabbing a fistful of greyish leaves
And ashes of the blades
That once would bleed with green.
Laggardly crawling
To destinations untold -
A path in itself
It would seem.
My liquid stream
Of consciousness
Befuddled -
Shriveled drops
From puddles.
Parched
From lack of rain
You used to pour
Through astral funnels...
Oh god, I'm dead.
Looking up at invisible clouds
In a transparent sky -
I can see the eternal beyond:
Heaven through a window.
Angels fogging up the glass of Dawn,
Spawn of my zombied breath, heed my call:
I only want to cry with you.
I said I'd die with you
But you've gone.
And now all that is left
Is to tread abroad blackened grounds
In discolored death...
