Last Dance

Last Dance

A Poem by Rudie Rock

Gentle footsteps into pitch blackness.
Hopefully death will show some kindness.
He holds a cigarette loosely from his crooked smile blowing thick, intoxicating smoke.
Beckoning closer the soul which life broke.
A gray, bloodless hand reaches forward,
calling for a kiss fit for a coward.
The weary traveller  waltzes with their end,
a final dance with an old friend.

I really like this :)
I assume you’re speaking of death?
Please tell me if I’m wrong.
I very much enjoyed the read.
