Drip

by Nisha   Feb 2, 2008


Drip drip drip.
red...
on blackened stones.
cries
in woeful eyes.
lifeless bodies.

but she tried...
she tried...
how she loved them. her people.

but they died...
they died...
her people died.

she could not save them alone.
she could not even save herself...
is she alive?
not inside.
no,
not anymore.

drip drip drip
blue.
amongst the rubble.
tears.
her greatest fears.
reality.

but she tried...
she tried...
how she loved them. her people.

but they died...
they died...
her people died.

she could not save them alone.
she could not even save herself...
is she alive?
not inside.
no,
not anymore.

drip drip drip
black.
from hating hearts.
ignorance,
is where it starts.

but she tried...
she tried...
how she loved them. her people.

but they died...
they died...
her people died.

she could not save them alone.
she could not even save herself...
is she alive?
not inside.
no,
not anymore.

drip drip drip
white.
she sees a light.
release
bodily bonds tonight...

but she tried...
she tried...
how she loved them. her people.

but they died...
they died...
her people died.

she could not save them alone.
she could not even save herself...
from anyone.
not even herself.
