SHADES OF DEATH

One last cackle and it all ends

One last gasp and you’re over the other side

The plug is pulled and the lights go out

Just the way it was meant

 

Just one final tremor

Just one final shake and your body goes numb

You try to add it all up 

but zero is the end of the sum

 

Is this the way you’ve dreamed it would be?

Or did you expect to beg for mercy on bended knees?

 

You hold it in firmly cause you know it’s the last gasp

You are aware that it won’t last

Nothing can stop the black cloak covering you now

Don’t cry my sweet

You never knew how
