Scarlet Cinematic

She sits in silence with blood sliding down her fingertips, Pain traced across her face but a smile curls her lips. All these lovely memories have now crumbled all to dust, In these fading city lights love has bled for lust. Never ending cinematic playing in her head, Of all the scarlet demons moaning in her bed. Lying in her blood the pain hurts more inside, Bladed edge may numb the pain but emptiness is suicìde. Silent screams into the void but moans are only heard Lost in all the city lights but all the lights have blurred.

Beautifully written poem, John. With a little twist it could be the story of a vigilante or dark super hero.

Very good, John. Your poem just seems to cry out across the expanses of a huge, bustling city that just screams with silence - Nicely done! My best regards! :) john P.s A Seven!
