Omega
Disrupting the surface it spreads
the beach of skin. Like a cracked
windsheild slowly winding around,
my vein opens & air seeps in.
Blood, moist & warm like lava it
spills into the cold ocean.
Flies & misquitoes feed. My open
heart bleeds.
Warm morning sun gently caresses
the cold ground. Drying, healing, filling the earth
with its life.
Morning dew looks so sweet getting...
thirsty. Tiny droplets of sweat
beading off my forehead mixing into
the red ocean around me..is that you sister? tears of blood
.. crying heart. Shortness then
subtle, loss of breath. Lightning leaps
seemingly from my chest.
My soul runs like freedom to father,
my body becomes one again with mother.
