Seven Hours

Contributed by Raidne on Thursday, 23rd January 2003 @ 09:00:00 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry

Cloaked in morning mist
She pulls her bleeding body through the grey streets
Finding out the paths that lay behind her
In tattered shreds of silk and canvas interlaced with dirt and grime

Seven hours of broken skin
Seven hours of bruised lips
Seven hours of bleeding wrists

Arms and legs and feet wrapped in bandages
Morning birds fly south from her presence
Heart stopped

Seven hours before
Seven hours of death upon white carpeted hotel floors
Seven hours of visions swept past bloodshot eyes

Lace ribbons tattered in her raven black hair
Splattered crimson streaked
Wandering in tear stained rags

Seven hours of blood flowing
Seven hours of pacing endlessly
Seven hours watching him die slowly

She watches her strikes bleed
She wraps him in bandages made from hotel sheets
It's just a little too fast

Seven years of abuse
Seven days of planning
Seven hours until her plane arrives
To take her away from here

I don't get who is the one being beaten. Was she beaten and this is her revenge or did she beat him and this time was too much

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
