Reality

by Arcane Blondie   Oct 11, 2006


Leaves crunch underneath her faltering feet,
The noise almost inaudible against her pounding heart,
Her head knows what has happened,
Yet her heart refuses to accept reality`s truth,
Ahead the red and blue lights flash threateningly,
The steady voices heard, but meaning nothing,
To turn around and walk away; only a dream,
Foot by foot life pays its toll,
The scene becomes clearer and more alive,
Sight blurs as new tears fill her eyes,
Stomach violently wrenching she throws up,
The body hangs limp, slowly turning,
Round and round, slowly, so so slowly,
Lifting her head from the ground, she nods,
The police officer turns to confirm the body`s identity,
She sinks to the ground in sobs;
How could he leave her to bear this alone?

    Very interesting indeed,
    You have a way with words that makes me read carefully,
    The first lines intrigues me,

    "The steady voices heard, but meaning nothing,"- hmmm..I think it would sound better if --"but means nothing...I dont know I think its better that way.

    "Lifting her head from the ground, she nods,"- this line is my favourite, it has a lot of emotions.story.

    Overall a great read.

    Keep on writing on what you feel and like.
    5/5

    God Bless!
