Staying Alive (Free verse) by darylchew
Slumping over his armchair,
with crimson flowing like the sad tears of God from his wrists,
All hail the stinging sharpness of this about-to-be murderer,
as the poison spreads over the floor like a disease.
His last thoughts was a nightmare,
lust desire and temptation for two cold clammy strangers,
Was it a twist of fate?
Determined intentions forbid but falters,
to the unintended outcome -
He struggles for breath.
Hurriedly passing him by,
the winds of Time leaves him sitting on a throne
Of shredded red ribbons.
