The enemy's sword

by Angstluver   Dec 13, 2005


Your eyes
so empty
your body
so still
if you had a pulse
I wouldn't think you were dead
but the streak of blood
from your mouth
to chin
betrays you
as does the slash
dripping with blood
I fall to the ground
holding my breath
trying not to cry
and failing
falling to the ground
the enemy's sword in my belly
I turn around
a dying act
and I shoot with my gun
now the killer is dead
but now
I have lost two people
myself and
you
