A Kiss of Death

A KISS OF DEATH I sensed isolation I felt botherd, broken and ablazed I know I'm too far away Into the darkened route of blank moon Into a negative stream of sentiment In an off-circle somewhere in forever land I was; Deepened deeply with sharpened tongues of deceit Dropping off tears of flaming tongs Dawn too caugth me deep in darkness And in silence I raised my head up and whispered a roar at the stars above Why me? I raised a bottle of sweet poisoned wine to absorb and to taste a kiss of death But yet, a voice so swift and tender So juicy and slowly Thwarted my attention as she said; "Dear child it's not too late to make a change, life goes on even without your former, wipe your tears and re-join the circle round, remake yourself, turn your local into the modern you want." ©Gideon I Tukuna
