The Last Goodbye

When fire breathes it's last goodbye Extinguishing the Suns lidded eye The shade brings life as dark surrounds And unexpected screams abound Blood slithers down a rusty blade Sheathed in flesh a soul to fade A maniac smiles behind a mask Relishing his demonic task Footsteps echoing from behind A sudden turn, no life to find Exercising futility Victims always franticly Search in vain to find escape From a most horrific fate Fear surely gripping their hearts It's claws will tear their lives part And when it happens no time to run An unexpected end begun Pain shoots forth like lightning's flash As hopes and dreams are burned to ash Blood spilled across a dirty floor The life that was now shuts its door And from the body comes a sigh Like fire breathing it's last goodbye
