Fade To Black

Fade To Black

A Poem by Sarah S
"

Something that came to me when I was in a rather... "deathy" mood.

"
i want to run, in the rain
like a streak of lightning
until i collapse, exhausted
lying in some puddle
the hollow ground into which ive fallen
motionless
freeze and wither away
cut me to peices
tear away my heart
beating, broken
cover me in roses and blood
lay me down on the dark plain
where the wind howls,
grey and mournful
like a wanderers lost soul
give me a beautiful last moment
build me a pyre
obsidian and silk
as black as this life
set me alight
i'll dance in the flames
the haunting song plays
as my lifeless corpse falls
take my ashes
from the embers glowing
scatter them to the four winds
when the sun bleeds its last
the day dies
fade to black
