Requiem For the Final Breath
I heard the squelch of death nearing once again,
pummelling with the purple pulsation in frail vein.
Mortality enclosed within mind-soul-body trinity,
the sound of its footfall trailed the echo of eternity.
Air of twilight hour resonated in the silence of death,
I heard it compose the requiem for my final breath.
When at dawn the cadence of the symphony would stop,
you would find me transfixed in the glimmer of dewdrop.
