On the Exhale

Contributed by Merry on Friday, 4th March 2005 @ 09:19:03 PM in AEST
Topic: ambiguous



Involuntary nervous tick pulsed
Brink of death felt close
Breath exhaled one last time
It was just as she imagined it would be
Everything came true here in this moment
Flashed across her movie-screen mind
She remembered her prayers
She remembered her third grade teacher
It all came rushing back to her
As death crushed her beneath its rusty heel
Light swallowed up the darkness
Until there was nothing to be afraid of
She was delighted to be here at last

This is... wow. Beautiful, gorgeous, stunning... those words seem so trivial. Its masterful, excellent, powerful, heart-wrenching and somehow leaves one feeling hopeful as well, I'm not making much sense I know, but thats your fault. Truly beautiful.

Take care
Hugs 'n Love
