I watched Death work tonight
The victim’s eyes lost their light
Have you ever witnessed anything so mysterious as this
There’s a finality and quiet as one slips into deathly bliss
“Don’t use your teeth when you bite me, please”
I said as the fangs ripped through me with ease
I wriggled and writhed to escape my fate
Until finally I accepted that it was too late
This is when the world began to fade away
And with it all the chaotic mess filling the day
Now its quiet and dark
No dogs to bark
Not even the fluttering of the meadowlark
I watched Death work tonight
Worked on me until I had no fight
I am dead with nothing left to say
I am dead so take your Life and go away
-CL Fuqua
