Life�s Crisis #3 - White Lining

A Sad Poem

 

White Lining – Life’s Crisis #3

One last thought
One last gasp
One last touch
One more life

The end arrives faster than bullet aimed for your heart
I would rather take the bullet’s death upon me
I prefer to bring on the end fast and painless
Last thought, gasp, touch, and life

Gravity at this point has took its toll
Our health is fading away with every breath
The eyes that were once enriched with vision
Now gone
Now burning

Our body once florescent with life
Now a crumbling structure of skin
Bones braking
Heart beat in the distances fading

Who will save our dying soul?
This would be life’s last crisis
Wishing for another chance to make it all better
clinging to the very last push of strength in you
As death takes the very soul you once fought for
Your life flashes right before your eyes

your eyes go black
you see nothing
you scream
you plead for one more breath

granted to you, not
Its over
What did you do?
Nothing

With one last string of life left
The tears of guilt stroll down your face
With one last full attempt to speak
I fully acknowledge, accept, and embrace
you speak - goodbye love
Phil

Maybe for you...Just kindding... You have to drag me through life that fast. kind of like the three phases of the Moon...You are born...You are at the prime of your life... Now you look at the ending, and wonder where did it all go. and how fast it went. You kind of wonder if at the end if you will be with loved ones or in a cold room staring a white celing. Wishing you could hold some ones hand be fore you pass to the next realm. Sadness.
Thank you
Andrew

Sad indeed but all part of life, sadly. Someone once said "live like you are dying"
Maybe that is something we should all keep in mind so that the day comes it won't be filled with regret, rather with all the happiness you have shared with those you loved

This is really very sad and intensely deep.

"your eyes go black
you see nothing
you scream
you plead for one more breath"- I simply loved these line a lot..Very much wounding.

Beautiful flow and a great work!

Powerful and very emotive ....

Reading this makes you feel like you're losing someone. Which is basically the point. Nice work!
