Rewind

Blood drips, like crimson raindrops
From vacant eyes,
Dusty cobwebs outlining curled lashes,
Oozing, staining tears,
Ever-flowing rivers
Cascading down pale cheeks,
Marking tainted trails,
A gentle race of balmy rubies
Dancing down,
Mingling with soft, full lips;
Swallow them down,
A sweetly bitter pill.
It chokes you,
Gagging.
Retching.
Pull them back!
Rewind …
… Rewind.
Put them away,
Back to where they came from.
In reverse they travel,
Given birth to, upon pure lips,
Living quickly upon soft cheekbones,
Sucking back into swollen eyes,
Drifting and dying beneath shining lids.
Follow your own command,
Live life in reverse,
Travel backwards.
Not living in present,
Not looking to future,
Only the past.
Rewind …
… Rewind.
Grow ever smaller,
Aging,
Back to front,
Growing yet shrinking.
Younger and younger,
Careless and free,
Into the womb.
Smaller and smaller.
Rewind …
… Rewind.
Evaporating,
Into nothingness,
No longer existing.
While I,
I didn’t even get to say…
Goodbye.
