Falling Skies
By FearlessDragon
Perched upon a fragile ledge
Breaking from within
Inching forward to demise
Hoping the falling skies
Will catch me
I don't deserve this...
I empty myself into the night
Never to see these beasts again
The whirring wind
Cutting through me
And
Splashing brains upon the concrete
The last things that I hear.

Hopefully, the shock would do you in first... Never fancied dying this way... You'd have no choice but to watch as you fall to the grace of gravity, nice sorrow filled piece thanks.

Sometimes it truly fells like the only way to kill the beasts within is by killing the vessel they reside in. Poetically written, til the last 2 lines, was that on purpose? - XXOO

Yeah, I wanted to weave the poetic side with the bluntness of the last line to bring it all into harsh reality.

So sad, talking us through those last seconds. Beautiful words with a messy thud of reality at the end. X
