......Blood......
....Drips fast....
...Slowly falls...
Like scarlet rain
.....Splash.....

    I find "blood" and the description "scarlet" very cliche, so I wasn't too keen on this. I did however like the use of onomatopoeia on the last line. Thanks for sharing.

    I do not like the last line at all.. It really ruins and takes away from the poem in my opinion.. But the rest was really good.
