Ticking incraments

So tired, he closed his eyes, which made him realise,
although no one can see, his spirit's breaking free....

Seems it's a story
Of a girl always near-death
Through every attempt,
The loveliest metaphor,
A lie even I saw through....

Love Birds
Sparrows fluttering
One on top of the other
Uninterrupted

By the passing cars
In the middle of the road
Near death, unaware...

Forbidden lipstick;
Detrimental to the soul
Powerful than any sword
A near death foretold;
Changes in lifestyle took place
Thanks to God's amazing grace...

Beautiful Women Are Razor Blades
Beautiful women are razor blades 
They cut my heart into pieces
Yet they know not
how to stitch them together
But leave it bleeding
to near death each time...

Near Death
Age, catatonically passed between
In its thinking processes
Doubt, and the most ghastly, Fear.
And will no angel edge up, to whisper
Death's so called realm, down-winging:
"Death is but heavenly near?"...

Delipadated and Ill Fated
Delipadated and Ill Fated

Home I did see was so dilapidated,
To go into inside of it had hesitated;
Dog was near death
Taking a dying breath;
He died an the results were ill fated.

Saw this on a YouTube video.

Wilted Flower
Like a wilted flower in a field full of daisys
I stand alone, near death but still hanging on
I hang on so others can see my beauty and still be happy
but every flower has to die
and without love, care and attention
some die young...

A nervous husband about to undergo surgery
asked his wife: Do you suppose I’ll have a NDE?
That depends on how you interpret the acronym.
For most, it means a Near-Death Experience.
In your case, I hope it means: Not Dead Enough.

Jonah and the whales
Jonah, praying in the great fish,
with putrid slime on red eyelids,
has the sudden faith
of near death -
sings on the beach,
fish-vomit in his beard.

Whale-songs drift,
doubts echo, 
luring a pod to sand spits
where waves throw up  bones.

The void exists within
All receptors alert, yet frozen in place
Unscreaming

There is held breath
The wax like mask of your own face
Near death

Mistake 
Lost without trace
Wake

The void exists within
The wax like mask of your own face
Wake...

Will You Suffer At Your Own Hands?
Will you suffer at your own hands?
A disfigured figure, a broken body
All 206 bones exposed to my eyes
When you lie in your bed,
Do you visualize your casket?
You need nourishment as you near death
So, fill your body with life
And fill your mind with worth...

Living Near Death
If I died right now who would know
Lingering slowly 
Slowly I would fade
Blackness consumes my conscious 
Sad everyday 
Lonely feels cold
Unreasonably cold and dark 
To feel another breath would create a story
If you could be mine
I would build a sandcastle with you
And live forever in it...

Moment of death, life force sucked out, that it’s the end, we have no doubt, being offered no time to think, for it’s over, in but a blink. Having survived this happenchance, what’s the way we now choose to dance? Are we as yet not overawed, that each life breath’s a gift of God? 11-June-2022
