Zombie (Revamped)A Poem by Pale RoseYeah I redid it. I hope it's better.
Previous Version This is a previous version of Zombie (Revamped).
Cocked gun to my head Finger on the trigger Just an inch, half an inch And this life is gone One deep breath, one finger moves-- I stare down at this loaded death And feel better knowing One day, one twitch It could all go Away Light flashes off the metal Thin razor edge on my skin Just an inch, half an inch And this life is gone One sharp exhale, one hand moves-- I stare down at this razorblade And I feel better knowing One day, one slice Would take it all Away Wind blows past my ear Feet right on the edge Just an inch, half an inch And this life is gone One deep breath, two feet move-- I have a craving for Starbucks But I feel better knowing One day, one leap It could all go Away But in my mind’s eye I know the truth. THE BULLET CRASHED THROUGH THE BLOOD GUSHED OUT I TUMBLED OVER INTO THE SKY
And my body's left to wonder why--
