Glass

A Poem by Casey Ishmael

Each time she breathed

It felt like glass.

Shards slashing her throat

Gasping for air, she hoped.

Hoping for a release,

So everyone would be pleased.

Tears rolled down her face,

Death awaits.

Was it a sweet release?

God. She hoped.

You are a writer. I have it on good authority that writers come from Flemingsburg too. I'm not here a lot anymore. I haven't been writing lately. But I look forward to reading more from you.
