Doomed Death

Her blank expression soaked up anger at an eccentric pace, Tension built up as the devil inside of her deformed her face, Her scream sent chills shooting down my back, Instantly my ears blocked out the wale that made my skull crack, The darkness engulfed the everlasting echo as a whole, As if a hungry beast, I would never get released... Silence stretched and the night muted my desperate call, again she screamed! Then followed the ear piercing car tyres screeching, With me screaming off my head, The lights of the cars beamed, The sudden rush of adrenaline reminded me that my life was hanging by a single thread, In a matter of seconds- we were in mid-air, Driving off of a cliff, as we hit the curve, With no moments to spare, I learned over to conserve, The only being that meant more to me than me, That she... that she, who screamed at the truth of me, Only when she could clearly see the real me, I realised that she, Could not bear with the cruelty held within me, The cruelty within me is overruling, The more I accelerate the more I begin drooling, I drool as I can’t stop myself, I’m too weak, Within a strong person, comfort I seek, The confidence and reassurance in each of her movements, The glide in personality and unbeatable perseverance, Make guilt lay eggs in the centre of my brain, As it’s a fact that I don’t deserve her yet without her I’d turn insane... Lost in a world that’s falling apart, All that’s left is one last beat of my heart, Not because in seconds I’m doomed to die, That would just be another lie, But because in just a second, I know her life will end, And as her heart beats, Mine repeats...
