Dead of Night

Dead of Night

A Poem by Courtney

Sitting in my tattered dress
Soaking blood drenched tears
Sharpened death has sweet caress
Brushing away fears

Sprawled out under open moon
Ever beauteous sight
Last thing to be seen so soon
In the dead of night

Peaceful way to leave the earth
Dagger clenched in hand
First blood eager now has birth
On my knees I stand

At last sink down, in death, on floor
Of intricately woven lore
