The Perfect Way to Die

By gracefullytorn

Knives slicing through silky smooth skin
Piercing screams filled with agony and distress
Coughing up blood on a creamy white carpet
Evidence forever there

Slowly drowning in life's essential pool
Gasping for air that cannot be reached
Sudden calmness it will all be over soon...
