Time ran out

It's kinda morbid..

                                     My time ran out

 

With a knife in one hand

and a fist full of sand

 

 

                         I look death in the eye,

                               no need to be shy

 

 

    I hardened my heart

    right from the start

 

 

                       So as the blood began to stain

                          I truly felt no pain

 

 

 

                                 Maybe this is fate

                              for my life to be late.

 

 

Author's Note

I'm sure you figured this out but just in case by late I mean the term you use when someone has passed away

Beautiful in structure and simply good in theme. It was simple yet attractive. Great work.

Heart-wrenching, and the succinctness of the form really brings out the despair in each couplet...great work Sheila.

Very good I also think that your rhyme scheme was very good. It was short but it was also very vivid which I thought was very good
